SOURCE: Fuel gauge shows empty

The electrician could be right, I too am an electrician, and my best guess for this is the wireing, make sure all wires leading to and from are in tip top shape. Any electrician can do this, Kragen does it for free I think, and Auto Zone might do it too. But it could be a ground wire, i had a similar situation but it was with my fuel pump. ground wire was worn and lost continuity.

Fuses are located by the side of the dash board when you open the driver's door. The fuel pump fuse is situated in there.

2003 Mitsubishi Galant station wagon. How to bypass the immobilizer on it?
Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

Quite simply you can't bypass it. There are two computers and a security module, plus sensors to stop exactly what you are trying to do. You have to fix it, not find away around it. Your car came with three keys from new. When you are down to one key, that is the time to get another made and programmed (cloned) from the other good key. All cars need 2 keys, my 2005 still has the 3.

You can't bypass an immobilizer as it is all computer controlled and monitors the security modules. You have to fix the issue not find a way around it.

Check your fuse boxes and the fusible link in the wiring harness. If you've lost power to the engine computer, bypassing the ignition switch won't help you.

2003 Jeep Liberty Sport. Replacement key but no key fob. How to bypass?
You can't bypass alarms and immobilizers. They are there specifically to stop what you are trying to do. You have to fix the problem, not find a way to beat it. You need a transponder in the key (a chip) and you need that key reprogrammed. You need the fob.

To reset the Jeep Liberty alarm, press the control door-lock button on the keyless entry fob. Open the side door of the cab. Leave all doors closed for around 16 seconds before the Vehicle Security Light on the instrument cluster starts blinking quickly.

My 1999 aruora secrity light is blinking and my car wont start. If it does it only runs for bout 3 sec then dies again . Thats only when its been sitting for a couple day . Nobofy can figure out whats...
Sounds like a problem with the security. It immobilizes the fuel injector circuit when the security is on.

Try this: turn key to on, and wait several minutes (up to 30 minutes) to see if light stops blinking. If it does stop, turn key back off, then try to start it. If the security light goes off, it may have reset. If it does not stop blinking or staying on steady, the dealer will charge outrageous prices to fix it-possibly over $800. Google "passlock bypass" or "passkey bypass" or "VATS bypass" to see your options. A site called newrockies sells a module (about $200) that forever bypasses the whole security system.

Fob lost and antitheft wont let me start pontiac sunfire
Locate the immobilizer unit. This is a black box, usually situated under the dash close to the steering column. Trace the wires from the immobilizer to the vehicle's wiring harness, and where the original harness was cut, remove the immobilizer wires, and reconnect the original wires. Most fitters simply disable the ignition or starter circuit at the ignition lock wiring and this can easily be reversed.
A professional repair centre or auto electrician may only take less than half an hour for a job like this.

Audi a4 suddely immobilized, immobilizer light blinking!!! was fine last time it was driven...plz help
Tow the car to the dealer ship. they can reset this usually fairly quickly and it is not worth the headache to try and deal with yourself. It sounds to me like your key has lost its programming and the car will not start until it is reset.

Vw beetle does not start. seems like its some kind of anti theft protection. the car/key icon lights up, it turns over for a second , then off. this is the first time this has happened, but we bought it...
First of all you need to programm all ignition keys using suitable diagnostic equipment (VAS, VAG-Com) connected to the data link connector of the car.

You have an electronic immobilizer key recognition problem. Now your key chip is not recognized by the transponder antenna fitted on the ignition switch barrel.

  • Everytime when you had a new key you must programm all available ignition car keys before trying to start the engine with this new key !!!

    This warning lamp indicates that the engine is locked by the immobilizer system, and the engine start sequence must be repeat again.

    From year 1995 in Audi-VW (VAG) cars is used engine immobilizer. The VAG group immobilizer system consists of an immobilizer ECU which controls the recognition of keys and the Engine Management ECU system. Immobilizer is activated when the ignition key is removed and, together with the engine control unit, largely prevents unauthorized starting of the engine. The system uses a transmitter and receiver unit in the ignition key (transponder). Whenever an attempt is made to start the engine, it transmits a new code to the car's electronics. The immobilizing is only cancelled and car motor electronic receives permission to start engine if the key sends a right authorization code.
