Have a ‘97 Boxster that was broken into and the radio was stolen. They cut the wires and left a mess. Looks like they may have attempted to try and start the car with a screwdriver.

Now the car won’t start. WON’T turn over. (Sorry...posted incorrect info before)

Could the theft attempt activated the immobilizer and if so, what needs to be done to get the car off of lock down mode?
