Greg | ValetPro Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 On thursday my elise s2 would not start because my key fob failed to turn the immobiliser off. I just tried the emergency system to get the car started but this seems to have made it worse. the normal red light is now not flashing. But still will not start. also i found that when i was going through the pin code sequence the red light was also not flashing the only red light flashing was the seat belt light so i used that for the pin. Should it have been the normal res light for the alarm and why would this light stop flashing? any ideas or help i would be grateful.

Greg | ValetPro Posted November 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Ok, going to have a go at bypassing the immobiliser is there any reason this would be a bad idea? Quote All the Best Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg | ValetPro Posted November 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 If anyone knows about how the emergency reset was supposed to work. Please read my about comment and feedback it be good to know what the issue is. so i can get my car running i have bypassed the immobiliser and will disconnect the alarm system. I wanted to keep the old system intact so i have bypassed without cutting wires. This is for anyone else who has similar problems and wants to get around the issue. Let me know and i can tell you what i did. what i would like to know is if the immobiliser is fixable and who i should talk to about it. My car is garaged so its safe but future owners might need the immobiliser to be working. Any thoughts? Quote All the Best Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 Greg, is there anything in the manual about the reset? I'd be popping to your local car alarm outfit and getting them to take a peek... They're usually pretty generic so they should be able to get to the bottom of the issue. 1 Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

Greg | ValetPro Posted November 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2022 Thanks Bibs. When I take my car to Maidstone sports cars for a service and MOT I will speak to them about it. Having it now bypassed all is working well. But it would be good to get it working as it should. Anyway thanks for the advise.
