Omega General Help / What Might This Mean?

« on: 10 November 2015, 12:40:22 »

Starting to happen more frequently now.

When starting the car, it fires up straight away, but in 1-2 seconds it stops and the car with spanner symbol flashes a few times. It usually then restarts with no problem.

Pedal trick gives: P1613 Immobiliser No Or Wrong Signal Immobiliser.

Any ideas please.

Will certainly give him a try. His eBay page shows several doors but none in Z155. Anyone have an idea of the cost to have a door resprayed?

Anyone used these people?  www.1stchoice.co.uk

They say they have sourced a rear door in the correct colour for a delivered price of £78 from a company called Orange Autosalvage, who seem to have the same address.
