Immobiliser?

Hey all,

I have an R Reg rover 214 and our one immobiliser key has stopped speaking to the car. We've done everything possible to try and find fault with the key fob but with no joy and found on another thread that the fault can also be with the fuse. Anyone know which one I should be replacing? I checked through the lists people have posted and couldn't see anything to do with it. Am I just missing something obvious?

Thanks for your help,

Paul

Do you have central locking?

If you do, does it still work with the key in the drivers door lock?

Cheers

Hi and help please!
Hi all i'm new to forums so please be gentle lol!
I have a problem with my little zr she's not very well lol
She's a zr vvc 160 2002 plate and she won't start. she will turn over but refuses to start, i've changed plugs,leads and coil packs i've took both camshaft and crankshaft sensors out and cleaned them but still no joy. The fuel pump doesn't make the usual hum when turning the ignition on so it's not priming I was gonna check relays ect but what's what's in the fuse box under the engine which one is for the fuel pump or fuel cut off etc I'd rather check this before chasnging the fuel pump.
Any help would be appreciated

the cut-off switch is a round black button in the engine bay near the windscreen, there's a switch behind it to tell the car when the bonnet is closed.

do you have a round or square alarm fob?
as random as it seems as a question, the layout is different between the 2 systems used.

Thanks for the reply i'll check this when I got some spare time busy seems it's xmas lol the key fob is the square one. Someone told me to check immobiliser by re-setting it by locking the car via key and waiting etc then trying but that seems to be working fine. Its odd really I was using the car fine drove to the mot station no problems then just would'nt start and haven't since. I have had a little trouble with the car cutting out at junctions and being sluggish but when given some wellie it worked fine this have only happened like 3 times and hasn't been a regular occurance.
I did check this morning if there was a click from the relays when turning the ignition on and I heard a click so I'm thinking it must be the fuel pump itself. I've also changed plugs, leads and coil packs, tried bumping her, took out and cleaned both camshaft and crankshaft sensors, when I undone the fuel filter and tried to turn the car over no fuel came squirting from the filter so i'm really starting to think the pump itself is gone kaput! Any ideas or suggestions It's spinning my head lol!

Will do managed to check relays all working fine and a friend had some spare fuses so changed them but still no joy. Just a little question if it has a faulty or dead cam or crankshaft sensor would these cause the car not to start? it had a faulty camshaft sensor previously which I changed because the car was running in limp mode, it was a second hand sensor as at the time there was a 6 month waiting period for 1, but my dad owned a audi a few years back which had the same symptoms and it was the cam sensor. My friends cousin got a diagnostic reader he kindly hooked it up not so long ago but no codes came up. Just trying to eliminate things really.

i was hoping someone with greater intelligence/knowledge/both would help me out by now.
i'm still in the basic areas at the moment, and haven't ventured too much into the sensors, as long as it works i'll leave it. :err:

have you started a seperate thread, you might get more luck if you do.

FL1 would refer to (Fusible Link 1) the fusible links are the square fuses with round copper elements in the engine bay fusebox. these are typically higer rated than the normal fuses which would make sense as the heated screen can draw a lot of power.
as the fusible links have a clear top, have a look in the engine bay fusebox and visually inspect them for any breaks in the elements.

fusebox is in the cabin under the steering wheel.
there are 3 catches with a slot in each for a coin to turn it (most of the time you can just turn them with your thumb or a fingernail.)

air-con usually has a cut-off system for when the coolant pressure drops, could be a leak in the system, check the fuses and if all ok take it to get looked at. most garages can do aircon now, and if they can't they should be happy to point you in the direction of someone who can.
