95 1.6 De-activating immobiliser - Lesley1716
Can anyone tell me how to de-activate the immobilser on this car? It's my dads car and it's alarm system allows you to start the engine only if you open the car with the key fob.....if you lock it with the key and open it with the key then the engine will start, but if you lock it with the fob and open it with the key, the alarm goes off and it won't start because of the immobiliser. His problem is that he locked the car with the key fob then the fob broke and he opened it with the key, now he can't start the car.....are you still with me??....anyway, he reckons if he could just either immobilise the alarm and immobiliser he can just carry on with using the key. Is this possible?? Or is he going to have to give in and buy a new key fob??
Thank you

Have you solved this problem yet??

If not, if you look inside the engine compartment near the front off side, there is a keyhole with on/off. ive got one in mine but not sure if this is to switch off the alarm. I have no key for this so can't test it.
