Hi All,
I was installing a new head unit and something has blown whilst i was doing so. I didn’t have the battery disconnected when installing the unit (I'm an idoit!!!) and some of the bar wires crossed paths. The dome light went out and the car won’t start now – the keyless remote also wont work. All fuses are OK and all other electrical items are operational. I’m thinking that the immobiliser has something to do with it but I have no idea how it is controlled or where is it placed – I imagine that its quite hard to get too as to remain tamper proof. Has anyone else experience simular problems and can it be repaired by a novice? Cheers, Matt This post has been edited by Crowy: Dec 14, 2010 - 4:36 PM |
