hi all
ive read alot about this on as many forums as i can and ive tried it all so please i need some real help.
this is what happened
drove to the pub, locked the car. came out and key remote (3 button) does not open doors, so opened manually. turn ignition, car turns over and fires instantly for a second then dies. huh? tried again same thing!
(side note: a couple of weeks ago i turned the key and nothing....banged on the fuse box and tried again and it went)????
right now if i turn the key slowely auxillaries come on and if i turn further to crank the starter, the radio lights go off as usual but no cranking, if i turn key all the way off and then quickly turn the key all the way to crank it cranks and runs for a second then dies.
immobiliser light is always blinking
i got the bcm numbers from holden
got a new key programmed (locksmith looked at my old key and said the codes were still in it so i didnt need to get info from holden-even tho i had them, but he took codes anyway)
new key acts just like the old one (yes i followed instructions to the letter for the new key)
so i then sat in the car for 1.5 hrs with key in ignition on auxillary hoping immobiliser would be overridden (so ive read approx 40-60 mins) light still blinks and car still acted as above.
the car is still at the pub and i dont know what else to do.
please all serious info will be appreciated
thanks jamie
