Default 1.8 TD escort estate Immobiliser. WRECKIN MY HEAD!

Posted this in the general section by accident sorry!
Hope to get more answers here!

Can anyone help please??. The immobiliser beacon light is flashing erratically on my car. It won't turn over and there is no heater light coming on in the dash . It was lying up for a while but was running fine one day and the very next day it didn't. It's not a battery problem or anything as i've looked into that. Is there any way of removing the immobiliser or bypassing it? Thanks everybody.

Its a 98 btw

its hard to bypass, but should be fairly reelieable. make shure its an imobiliser problem for deffo. try using a different key. try jumping the starter or tow starting. the imobiliser stops cranking, also stops fuel, to bypass youl need to remove inj pump and swap the stop selonoid for a conventional type, this is not the easyist of jobs.
the fuse boxes are common to go down on these, maybe start with this. (under dash, drivers side)
