Electronic immobiliser
The system checks whether the vehicle may
be started using the key that has been
inserted. If the key is recognised as
"authorised" the vehicle can be started.
The check is carried out via a transponder
housed in the k ey – see page 53.
The electronic imm ob iliser activates
automatically when the key is removed
from the starter switch.
Control ind icator for imm obiliser A
Control indica tor A illuminates briefly
after the ignition is sw itc hed on.
If the control indicator flashes when the
ignition is on, there is a fault in the sy stem;
the engine cannot be started. Switch off
the ignition and then rep eat the start
attempt.
If control indicator A continues to flash,
try to start the eng ine using the spare k ey
and consult a workshop. We recommend
your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
If control indica tor A illuminates after the
engine has started, there is a fault in the
engine electronics or the automatic
transmission – see pages 136, 148.
Not e
The immobiliser does not lock the doors.
Therefore, always lock vehicle before
leaving unattended and enable Vauxhall
alarm system 3 – see page 60.
The Car Pas s contains all of the vehicle ’s
data and should therefore not be kept in
the vehicle.
