Yes the ECU light did flash after it attempted to tick over but then cut out immediatly.
I only have one key for the car and a new battery was put into the fob about six months ago. But the remote has never worked since my ownership of the vehicle one year ago so i lock and unlock the car by inserting key into lock as normal.
It turned over once then stopped. garage in swindon (Mr Clutch) were it was recovered to plugged a diagnostic computer into it and thats what the computer came up with..
I thought it might be the idle control valve failed. New cat fitted two weeks ago and it was also tuned and serviced.
Afternoon all. Nickname Villa. I am from swindon and my 1998 2ltr gls auto has decided on its own to activate the cars immobaliser causing the car to run like a bag of rollox ( spelling changed to protect the innocent). Car now in garage. Can this be reset and would it cost a bomb?
