Usually every thing comes to order if the battery has been removed, and then is connected again for at least 1 hour.
Provided the battery is charged.

If you need a code to tip in for starting, then there is nothing else to do than provide that code. No shortcuts. No smart computer tricks. No nothing.

Only thing you can do is to purchase a new computer with known code.
Not even the dealer can reset or progam a new code in the old one.
Sorry, but it is a deadlock immobiliser by definition and designation to its fully extents ...

How is it possible to by-pass an immobiliser system ?
If that is at all possible, I'd think that insurances would start thinking over about their customers ... :shock:

Quite simple, if you read the information on the site, you will see.

Renault Megane.. just done it for my Son... it works, but only as a by-pass the code must be 'typed' in every time you start the car.. great to get you going in an emergency anyway. Cheers for the link
