Help starting VS (No Keys !!)

[munchmunchrotors4lunch]

Hey all i had a VS given to me and there are NO KEYS..

now the ignition is already busted but a screwdriver will turn it to ACC and ON and as if it was going to start but just nothing. no cranking
is there an immobiliser i have to get around or what?
any help would be appreciated, i want to get the engine running so i can sell it..

there is an immobiliser, wont start without the keyhead.

you can get the memcal modified so it will start without the key from memory.

bummer i didnt really want to spend money when i am going to wrecking it..

i have heard if the pink wire that goes into the ecu taps into an ignition source it will fire? dont quote me on that as im not sure..

You can also turn the key/screwdriver to the ignition position, wait about 45 mins to 1 hour and the lights will come on and you can start....but once only. This is a safety feature for if/when the key buggers up.

my igniton has just played up i just hot wire it for now
hop in car lock doors from inside then un lock and should start thats all i have to do to mine

goddamnit i was hoping the VS was a bit harder than that to start with no key ( not for op`s sake for mine ) , i dont want some rank amatuer with a dent puller driving away in my car.

its not simple to hot wire unless you done it alot there is 4 wires and 1 is to start it now think where 3 more go

VN to VS Commodores are the most popular car to steal according to the statistics.

I have lost my keys twice so believe me.vs DOES NOThave immobiliser. it does have key reconition. there is a difference. there is no way to simply hotwire. there are 2 ways to get your car started. what i would do is go to your local wreckers. what you need is a body contol module,key and ignition barrel (matching). they come in differant freq. hi freq for calais. low freq for exec.im not sure with berlina and acclaim, it is found neer the steering colomn, behind the kick panel. it will labeled hi/low. cost between $100 to$200. any more your getting ripped. problem is your new key wont open your doors.you could of got the doorlocks from the wreckers too. the other way is more expensive involving locksmiths and holden service centres. ive looked into it and you dont want to go there.

vs DOES have an immobilser.

unless you have the correct key to start the car, the vehicle is immobilised

Why don't you just go out and get your self a BCBM, (BODY CONTROL BYPASS MODULE) will allow you to start the vehicle without the correct key, Available from GOOD ( I MEAN GOOD) Auto electrical places, (not supercheap, or any of those other poxy places,) if you cant source on pm me you contact details and i can organise one,

rottys n commys ummmmmmmmm y wuld u want to pay to start it it can be done for free trust me mate the way u describes all ova the place its a ten minute job

they come in differant freq. hi freq for calais. low freq for exec.im not sure with berlina and acclaim, it is found neer the steering colomn, behind the kick panel. it will labeled hi/low.

The High - Mid - Low is to do with BCM/feature support. Low being for Exec, High (features) for Calais/Statesmen etc p/windows, p/aerials etc - nothing to do with frequencies.
