SOURCE: immobiliser wont go off , wont unlock the doors.

There is a way to override the code, however you need the code number. The only other way is to sit in car with door shut, play with the central locking button on dash, locking and unlocking. While doing this occassionally turn the ignition on and off. If you do it long enough, you may find the immobiliser light goes out, if it does, quickly start the car.

Most likely the fuel door latch motor has failed. Pull down the trunk liner panel for that side by turning the knob next to the rear seat fold down 45 degrees. That will allow the panel to be pulled down. the latch is the small black box against the car body. It should have a manual release to get it open. Once open take out the two T25 torx screws and the motor will come out. Pay attention to how the manual release is routed and reassemble in reverse order.

hope this helps

Remove the front turn signal bulb for the left side. There is a plastic lever if you look closely, push down the plastic lever and push forward and the lamp housing will come out.

Note: the plastic is very brittle and may break if not done carefully. Depending on the size of your hands the bulb socket can be removed in the car by turning the bulb socket base 45 deg. counter clockwise (if I remember right). Turn it one way and if it won't move turn it the other way.

With the socket unplugged start the car and see if the turn signal light on the dash is still stuck on. With any luck it will be off...

If the light is still on then there is a shorted wire somewhere in the system. If the light is off then we're on the right track.

Once you get the socket out remove and inspect the bottom side of the bulb. It should have two aluminum contacts on its base, if they are mushroomed and touching each other replace the bulb and recheck.

If the bulb is ok then replace the bulb holder. They sometimes short internally.

I hope this helps.
