Won't Start - I think it's the immobilizer

First check the immobilizer for anything strange. Disconnect the battery, move the driver's seat, and take out the immobilizer. Check the fuse on it for signs of damage or being blown out. If that's fine, open the case up and make sure the board doesn't have corrosion or liquid damage on it.

If you do open it up and find moisture. Let it dry out for awhile and pray that it didn't fry anything. Most likely it did though. Then you need to see how moisture got down there.

I will do this as it has been raining while I was out of town and there does seem to be some "dampness" in the inside....hope it's not damaged.


Thanks!

Thanks!

I believe rain is a far more serious threat to these cars than the IMSB ever dreamed of being!
