De-activate immobilizer of 98 Toyota Corolla

When de-activating the standard, factory fitted, alarm on my Corolla 98 module, the car still does not start.

When alarm is activated no power is provided to the starter, and when turning the key nothing happens.

Now, with alarm de-activiated power is given to started, and engine does turn, but does not start. I have check the distributer, and could not find any problems with it. Have checked spark-plug, no problem with plug, but it seems as if no fire is send though, to egnite the fuel. "Yes there is fuel in the car". We have removed one of the spark-plug and turned the engine, no fire (spark)

Could this be an immobilizer failure, or what can it be, and how can I fix it.

Simple thing to do is have your coils checked.. You should have spark if they are good.. If you still dont then disconnect battery at least 20 - 25 mins see if it resets ecm and alarm. May begin to work properly again..

Toyota hilux surf immobiliser problem.

My KZTE Double Cab Bakkie (Utlity vehicle) comes with a Factory fitted central locking system
Yesterday the Remote would not un-lock the vehicle. The battery in the remote has been checked and seems ti be OK. I managed to open the vehicle (coat hanger through rubber on door method), when opening teh door the alarm went off (hooter etc). I placed the remote in the de-activating housing but it did not de-activate the alarm. I am now driving around with the flashers going for 20 seconds or so every time I open a door, but teh vehicle drives (I took out the hooter fuse to keep my sanity)..

Please help
