Hi guys,

i have a fault with the immobiliser light by the clock which is flashing all the time with ignition on/engine running. but it doesnt flash with ignition off

starts and runs fine, any ideas?

car is: 1997 escort 1.8 diesel van

Thanks Matt.

 

any ideas guys?

 

May have a fault logged in PATS module, or dodgy signal from pick up. ?

As above. Try a differant key if you have one.

ok thanks i'll try the red key, so the normal key i use could have dodgy chip?

do the faults clear with battery disconnected?

 

Thats right

Dave

 

update, disconnected battery for a while then tried red key, still light off with ignition off and flashing with ignition on

 

Might be the module fucked my other half had the same problem that started like your's. The light was on when the car was on then went off when you turned the car off it was like this for ages then one day it would'nt start at all i disconnected it from the module and is started stright up so like i say might be your module on it's way out If you do disconnect it your alarm wont work at all so might be worth getting another module and trying that if you need the alarm to work if you aint got an aftermarket alarm fitted

 

thanks

its a van so just an immbiliser it has
