Re: Vitara 1997 8v which wont start (wont inject fuel)

Turned out to be the Immobiliser, sent my ecu and keys to Rhinoman and he sorted it straight away. would definitely recommend him to people with similar problems.

Re: Vitara 1997 8v which wont start (wont inject fuel)

I have managed to get a fault code and its 83. I have tried a different antenna, immo box and ECU from a running anus and got it to run.

What should be my next plan of action? is there anyway of by passing the immobilizer? or how much will it cost to re-program it?
