      Hi Eric. Love your YouTube vids. I’ve read that its possible to get around the immobilizer issue by removing a chip on the ECU circuit board and replacing it with a generic surrogate. Do you know if this is correct and if so can you tell me where the ECU is located in my car? Many thanks for any help you can offer.

        See if this diagram helps with location of the ecu. As for what you want to do I will be of no help.

            If you’re trying to remove it to add a remote start system then your easier and safer bet to buy an immobilizer bypass. They’re fairly inexpensive and are only activated when you activate the remote start, meaning that somebody can’t jump in the car with a screwdriver and break the ignition lock, or go underneath and “hotwire” the car. With the solution you’re looking for they would be able to do exactly that. I’m not sure if there is a way, but it does make sense that there could be a chip for it, but it’s also possible that it’s a software feature that can’t be overridden by any sort of hardware change. I went with the bypass route, and it’s worked great for me. Just look for one that doesn’t require you to sacrifice a key to stick in the immobilizer, but rather one that can be programmed with your current key.

              Hi Brian. Thanks for the advice. I’ve tried looking for an immobiliser bypass but can’t actually source one. Can you tell me where you got yours from?

                I’m pretty sure I ordered the DEI 556 bypass. Just make sure to communicate with the seller that you want it programmed for your specific vehicle. They have to install the firmware that will support that type of ECU. You’ll then have to wire it in yourself and program it. It’s kind of a tricky process, so if you’re not comfortable with wiring electronics I’d suggest having somebody else do it. once you start cutting up your immobilzer system you won’t be able to start the car unless you either rewire it all back or connect it to the bypass. Use wire crimps and extra wire for this, you’ll be cutting and stripping some wires in this process
