To fix the bulb, pop the instrument panel out.

Its pretty easy and there is info in the maintenance section telling you how to.

had a new key done sunday which is chipped and i bet thats naffed up the immobiliser(144 and 145). can this be sorted by myself or not, i have 4 digit security code number.

What do the lights do when you try to start the car. If they are flashing that is an immobiliser signal and the car won't start till that's sorted, the engine ECU will stop the ignition and injection till the immobiliser ECU is happy hence no sound of fuel pump working.

[wizzy_michael]

no flashing lights at all. i have a remote fob which has a large button in the middle and one the side which looks like its for the light .have never used it and think batterys are flat. is this for the immobiliser or the alarm.

[CaptainZok]

Not 100% certain on the older setup which yours is. The later key has a built in fob which opens doors and disables alarm. There is a chip in the key which talks to the immobiliser sensor around the ignition barrel and if all is ok then the ECU gets the ok to start signal.
As I say I've never had one of the alarm fobs but on the two button key one button unlocks and the other locks on the first press and deadlocks on the second.

Aha.....infra red immobiliser setup......you have PM

[wizzy_michael]

where is the immobiliser alarm/unit situated and whats the best way of getting to it. read somewhere on my journeys around the web that it could be a soldered joint which has burnt out.a quick visual could confirm this

[wizzy_michael]
