Another plea to the gurus if they'e around?
Took my beloved X Reg IS200 for it's MOT this evening. Of course it sailed through.
Paid the man his money and the car was driven round to the front for me to collect.
Received the keys, jumped in, key in the ignition - won't turn! Several attempts - nope - check remote functions - key lights up - no familiar clunking from the locks, no hazard lights flashing. Tried several combinations - zilch. Great -a new MOT with a car that's going nowhere.
Hoped faulty key? Called in the wife as reinforcements (her in her happily running Picanto - ouch!) but with my service key (with a new battery) on her key set. Tried it -zilch!!
So thinking ECU, immobilisor interlock? Any suggestions - apart from matches, petrol...
Sincerely appreciated - though I know the humour that heading my way...
