What is an Immobilizer?
Thanks to the immobilizer, you can start your car only with your own key. In other words, it is a security system that opposes theft.
Although the key tip is correct, when it cannot connect with the previously paired chip and the vehicle does not have the original key, the vehicle will be inoperable thanks to this immobilizer.
How Does the Immobilizer Work?
İt was produced in 1944. This system, which has been made mandatory in countries with a lot of car theft such as the UK and America, is to prevent such incidents. The immobilizer works with a combination of four separate parts. These parts:
-ECU (Electrical Control Unit)
-Transpoder
-Contact bracelet
-It's an immobilizer box.
How the immobilizer works When you insert the immobilizer box into the key ignition, it establishes a connection with the chip in the key and generates a code by receiving a signal from the transpoder. This code is looked up on the ECU. If the correctness of this code is confirmed, you will be able to start your vehicle.
What to Do When There is an Immobilizer Malfunction?
Immobilizer error is not a problem that we encounter a lot. You can tell that there is a problem from the indicator LED on the front or the error on the display. In such a case, you should try to start your car with your spare key because your car does not start. After that, you should immediately go to an auto locksmith and take action to solve this problem.
