vs immobiliser

series 1 or 2? if one keep key on reds for 45 minutes then start car this will over ride the alarm or series 2 120 minutes

 

In the VR there is a switch that you need to push, on the passenger side on some makes. I remember reading it in the gregorys manual. Could just be a VR series one. Series two and your VS is the key thing that danny1987 said. Otherwise i think it goes to the ecu and would be a bit of a bitch to override. There wouldnt really be an easy way, its designed that way. Thats why holden wont tell u.

 

thats because it cant be turned off, simple.
you must get a new key programmed into it.

on the topic of keys my purple people eater wont start the (the keys went in the wash) how frigen stupid huh? now the car wont start the prob is i only have 1 key to the car....... am i stuffed?

 

i think the can find out the key frequency from your vin number.

 

i hope so ill see if it starts this mornen. and if not ill contact holden..........ill let u know how i go

 

Try Pressing Unlock Button Again.

When my key was running down, I had this problem.

Was always able to get started by pushing the "Unlock Button" on the key and trying to start immediately.

 

lol @ "switch off immobiliser"

WTF would be the point of having an immobiliser if it could just be switched off??

 

immobliza how to turn off for any time start

hay dude v6monsta here so your commodore wont start cause of the immobilize i can help you with your problem turn your reds on for 45 mins or until the red blinker on your dash stops when it stops turn your car on when you want to turn it off disconnect your battery befor the light comes back on and when you want to go some where put your battery back on and start the car real quick hope i solved your problem. good luck with your commodore:beer chug::idea3:

 

These keys dont use a "frequency" to disarm the immobiliser through the ignition switch.Its just a 6 digit code that lets the BCM enable the ECU.It cant be bypassed .Holden can access it from your VIN number.You have to prove ownership before they will do this for you.I got 2 keys programmed not long ago,and he wrote down my VIN and came back with a Tech 1 to program it in.I got the 6 digit number that he used from him so Ive always got it handy.It is about $100 for a new key and $20 to program it.Sometimes if you get lucky they will program it for free.

 

same here, my vs will start without hitting the button if i unlock it and fire up straight away but if i wait a minute i have to press unlock again before it will go.
i dont think its a battery issue with mine because it still has enough charge to unlock remotely

 

i'm sure this guy will be happy to get his car going again after three years!

 

:doh:dammit, i always forget to read the fine print

 

hey the wife just rang me from in town 12km away and cant start the car ( series 1 VS) the red immobiliser light wont go off so i reckon it is the immobiliser also the buttons on the key wont unlock the doors which makes me think the key is rooted! I cant get in there and its 5.20pm on a saturday so i cant get a new key done. any ideas? its in a f_cked area so if its left there it'll be gone by morning

 

you dont have a key hole in the drivers side door?

 

na mate there isnt one, i just got the rest of the story she dropped the keys in a puddle are they stuffed or will they work if i dry them out?

 

possibly, you could open the boot and crawl through if your boot has a key hole then do the leave the keys in the ignition thing.
also try tapping the key on something sideways like the curb or whatever , that worked for me once ( barely ) when i got my keys wet.

 

sorry mate miss understood ya yeah can get in to the car, the key just wont work at all and she just told me she dropped the keys in a puddle when she was getting them out of her bag something she didnt tell me before
