Hi I've recently purchased a gs300 around a month ago.
I've got this issue at the moment. The scenario is as follows.
The car has struggled to start a few times I've put jump leads on and it's started to work fine. Now the jump lead starting process has stopped working.
I've recovered the car to a local garage because it wouldn't start. I was told my the mechanic that they ran a diagnostic and faults came from the immobiliser. He managed to get the car started by charging the battery full.
I've driven the vehicle home with no issues, was a pleasant drive. Later in the day I entered the car and left the car ignition on for several minutes and then the issue occurred again. Car cranks but does not start.
To be fair most times the car has failed to start when I have left the ignition on for a while. I have charged the battery and have tried jump leads to start the vehicle. But the car is having none of it.
The fobs work fine. Can unlock and lock the vehicle and turn the ignition on. When I press start without the brake pedal the secruity light still continues to flash. Could this have something to do with it? Is the car not realising the fob, is the information not being sent to the receiver to iniate the starting process.
I'm so confused, I don't know what the problem is, can someone help? Could it be an immobiliser or something relating to the battery.
Any response will be highly appreciated. Thank you
