Immobilizer: fix / bypass options?
When powering off after parking I noticed my cluster flashed a green key-shaped light. The next time I tried to start, no joy. Tried all of my keys including valet and it's the same, immobilizer light flashes.
I have searched and didn't find fixes but was hoping there was a chance this could be fixed / replaced affordably or even bypassed? I asked a friend who works at the dealer and he said it can't be bypassed, but for all I know he was speaking from his on-the-clock advisor role rather than as a sympathetic friend.
Thankfully the car is only used occasionally but it sure would be nice to get it going again before actual freezing temps any advice?
