Attention! Attempts to make any changes to the design of the immobilizer are associated with the risk of disrupting the normal functioning of it, as well as other on-board electronic systems of the car!
The immobilizer is one of the most effective means of protecting a car from theft. On properly equipped vehicles, starting the engine is only possible using an individual key equipped with a special microchip. An attempt to start with a non-standard key leads to blocking the fuel supply to the engine.
The device is activated automatically when the mechanical key is removed from the ignition switch. To disable the immobilizer, simply insert the appropriate authorized key into the ignition lock and turn it to the «II».
When the ignition is switched on, the indicator should light up briefly in the service indication display field and go out after a few seconds. If the indicator continues to burn, the key is not recognized by the system as authorized. Remove the key from the ignition and try again. In the event of another failure, try to turn on the ignition with a spare key and contact an Opel workshop for help.
