Default How do i reset immobiliser ?

Last night i locked the car with the key and left the boot door open. Came out this morning and the car won't start. The red light on the clock set up is staying on. I can hear a clicking noise from under the dash when i try to start it. Anyone any idea's how to reset it ?

Who says its your immobiliser?

Why dont you shut the car up properly, lock it (including deadlocks) then unlock it and see what happens.... TBH alot of people have issues with the alarm sounder when they deadlock their cars using the key ...

All i had to do was use the key again in the door. I had locked it with the key and opened it with the alarm fob. I just assumed it was the immobiliser. Thanks for your help lads.
