I brought a second hand 2004 mitsub. outlander with on immobiliser fob and one plain engine key(No buttons on it/remote). For a while it was taking a couple of attempts before my immobiliser fob would make a successful connection and allow me to start the engine. Now its stopped working altogether and i cant start my car. There is a card included with the manual with a 4 digit code for the security system but there is no blinker on the dash (only the LED to show if the car is running with LPG gas or petrol. i opened the immob. casing hoping it might just be a dead battery but it doesnt even have one, which was shocking to me as i now wonder what powers the actual immobiliser fob????/ Please i VERY MUCH APPRECIATE any help or advice that can be offered.
The immobiliser works with a chip in the fob. This is a signalling device which, via a pick-up situated around the ignition lock, sends the signal to the engine computor which the allows the engine to be started.

TAKE A PEEK UNDER THE HOOD IN THE FUSE PANEL FOR THE FUSE AND RELAY FOR THE COOLING FAN. IF THE FUSE IS BLOWN THEN REPLACE IT. IF YOU SUSPECT THE RELAY TO BE BAD THEN TEST IT BY SWAPPING THE FAN RELAY WITH ANOTHER ONE WITH THE SAME PINS ON THE BOTTOM. MAKE SURE IT IS THE SAME SIZE AS WELL. HOPE THIS HELPS.. PLEASE KEEP ME POSTED. THANKS FOR AN HONEST RATING AND FOR USING FIX-YA. GOOD LUCK

There is a Recall to replace your cooling fan module because of this concern.
Open your hood and look at the black box bolted to your radiator fan by the battery. If it does not have a green dot on it, you have not had the replacement fan module installed.
Contact your local dealer with your VIN handy to verify the recall has not been done and to schedule an appointment.
If the recall has been done, verify if you have power coming out of the module to the fans, as the fans do burn out eventually.... but rarely both at once.
