What should I do if my car immobiliser fault light is flashing?
Answer: If your immobiliser light is flashing or the car won't start, it usually indicates a communication failure between your key's transponder chip and the car's Engine Control Unit (ECU). Avoid trying to repeatedly force the ignition, as this can lock the system. Contact Auto Electro Locksmith for an auto-electrical diagnostic check to determine whether you need a key replacement, an antenna ring repair, or an ECU recoding.
