Hi i have a Hyundai Accent 3dr 2002 model. My car has just stopped running it wont start it turns over but wont start i have had a mechanic look at it and he says its the immobiliser but i have recentley been informed by another mechanic that this certain model dont have an immobiliser the only thing that i can see that would be the immobiliser is the clutch needs to be in to start the car and that still works fine. Can someone please help me as i need my car. Kyles
If, when you switch the ignition on, you get a dash light on, the symbol is a car with a key overlaid, you have somehow activated the immobilser You could try disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, this may reset the immobiliser, If this does not work you will have to contact a Hyundai dealer to get the immobiliser unlock code.
Have you recently taken a sharp curve? Some cars I have seen with this problem come equipped with a safety shut-off switch to ensure the engine stops if the car rolls over or takes a sudden jolt. If this is the case, it usually is located in the trunk. Hope this helps.
Hi my Hyundai Accent won’t start diagnostic test is either crank sensor or immobiliser fault
The dashboard lights come on and the immobiliser light stays on for while but then will go out not sure if the problem is one or the other or both how do I know to disarm the immobiliser

hi from uk re your reg of car does have immob it is the chip in the ign key i had this model prior to my getz however does engine spin over quickly ? pull off a plug lead and check if spark is reaching plugs ?by holding lead to earth will hear clicking ? also checkthe fuel pump is actuating when ign is turned on ? if not check pump fuse in box ? as you do not mention milage ? assume is high ? the cambelt is supposed to be renewed 60000 mls or 5yrs ? but if this has failed/snapped the engine will spin over faster than usual as if no compression ? ie crank turns but not camshaft another problem could be the crank sensoror wires may be corroded ? if you could give any more info/symptoms it would help to offer possible checks you can diy ?
