It only takes a couple of seconds ... take the Fuel Injection fuse out of the fuse box every night. They won't be going anywhere without that (unless they somehow trace the problem and replace the fuse). smile

I remember getting in my old car and thought 'it's windy in here', and looked up to see a gaping hole where the top of the door used to be. barstard, I'd kill them!

Iwonder if they can get past the immobiliser on my car, if you lose the fob, the only way to get past it is bygetting a new ECU, so I wonder what technique the criminal's would use; they would make a fortune if it were possible and they sold the instructions lol, I know tonnes of MG Rover owners who have had to get replacement ECU's due to them losing/braking fobs and not having the fob code.

Having said that though, they rekon the future of car crime i carjacking, sand all the immobilisiersin the world aint gonna do shit for that haha.

I have a button on mine that you can press after the car has been hijacked, and it will cut out ten seconds later. smile

Immobilisers sometimes just bypass the ignition switch to the starter - you can connect these two wires, but that's only on older cars.

Ah I see, mine immobilises the ECU, which means the car won't start, it will just beep without the fob, even if you have the key (or if you witch the engine off and open the drivers door, without locking and unlocking the car using the fob). This is why it means a new ECU paired with a new fob etc to get around losing the old fobs.

I always wondered how they get past some immobilisers!
