Watch NOW! Immobilizer Bypass No Special Tools Needed Real

- Stumbled on this trick. Had a customer come in with problems and found the ecu to be bad. This car is equipped from factory with an immobilizer system. Many cars around this year will have the same. Simply switching ecu's will no longer work. The code in the key and the ecu have to match in order to start the car. I'm going to show you a way how to go around that for testing purposes. You still need your original key(s) and the original matching ECU. It will not work without those. This will continue to work until you either unplug the ecu, unhook the main battery, unhook the main relay(s) or if your battery runs dead. If those things happened the security light will blink again and won't let you start the car until you do the same trick or unless you reprogram the ecu and/or keys

Great video 👊😎👊
Thank you! Thank you for the love! I love what you do on your channel! ✊🏼
U stupid
Great from sae sedanten, indonesia
I wan ask. . I have toyota grand avanza car 2017, i just changed the ECU, the car cant start and the immobilizer indicator doesn't flicker either. What should i do? Thanks 🙏
Would swapping eeproms from original ECU to a new replacement ECU work with the original keys?
part numbers are matching btw
Hi there, I have a 1991 cressida, 7mx83, and when the 7m blew the head, I put a 1jz vvti 171, which has an immobilizer.
what do u recommend to get past the immobilizer?
I had a quote for 1000$! bit steep, so looking for an alternative, hope yoiu can help..
I like the no messing around, straight to the point style you have.. cheers
I thought those didn’t have immobilizers in Japan. Best route would be a stand alone computer for yours especially if your going to tune it or add upgrades to it!
I have a 2001 Toyota Avalon got a replacement used one and did exactly like you did and the security light keeps flashing will not crank any suggestions please
Peter,
I having an immobilizer issue I believe with my 98 Lexus gs400. The car will start most of the time with no problem but sometimes when I try to start it, it will crank then start the motor, then will run for less than a second then dies, then I see the key light blinking on the dash. Next, Any attempts to restart the car only cranks the motor over with the key light blinking. After a few minutes with random attempts to restart, the car eventually starts again. I bought the car used so i'm not sure if I have the original key but I'm current using a aftermarket key/reprogrammed with no problems for over a year until now, and I also tried the second aftermarket reprogrammed key with the same problem. I have not tested the original key that came with the car (its an intermittent problem need to test up to 2 weeks to see problems reoccur) but since both aftermarket reprogrammed key have problems I do not think it's the transponder in the key problem. What do you think? Thanks in advance.
sorry it took so long to reply. i would start with using your original key that came with the car since it will not cost you any money just a little time. it will also rule out the question if its the aftermarket keys that are doing it or not
It's all good I know you are a busy man. Recently, I have been using the original key with the car for over 2+ weeks now without a problem. What puzzles me is that I have been using the aftermarket keys without a problem for over a year until now. Can it possibly be the receiver amplifier or the key ring coil problem? For now I'll just leave it as is, and use my aftermarket keys for backup; just hope I never loose the original. :) Thanks for your help!
I have a question, what if i have valet key with no chip? Would it work?
I’m just curious if you cut all the wires and spliced them together (matching the colors) will it work too.
Yes
Smart idea, so you need a second Electronic Control Unit to do that
Hey I just Recently replace the key ignition cylinder do you think if I put the ECU from the same vehicle that I took the key from it will go away
I really appreciate how well you did everything you did from the very beginning in describing the problem, to explaining what you were going to do and then explaining what you were doing while at the same time performing the work needing to be done, with one hand no less AND filming it as well as you did with the other hand all at the same time. Fantastic!
Maybe you could provide a little advice for me after hearing my sad tale of woe.
I have a 2003 Volvo S40 that isn't getting any power to the fuel pump and like many people here I don't want to pour a bunch of money into it at a dealership where the part that I can buy online for $59 is sold by the dealership for over $700 (not to put to fine a point on it but they also are very proprietary with their software fixes in that outside a dealership it's difficult to find anyone who has the capacity to work on these things in a software sense) and of course you can't bring your own part. Add the expense of towing and then having them holding you over a barrel once there isn't an ideal situation in my eyes. I cannot start the vehicle although it does crank. I was wondering what advice you would give me. I did get a little friendly advice from the parts guy at the dealership who suggested it might be an issue with my "immobilizer" and not the ECU or CEM. Would really appreciate your advising as best you can what you'd do in my circumstance and if you need additional information, I'd be more than happy to provide it. Kindest Regards! Joe

How long does the effect last ? Does it matter if the "new" one was flashed ? Will this same trick work with all toyota type one ecus ? And, last question, how did you learn this ?
I would like to know if it works to Audi A4 1997? Car won't start and the scan shows an error to immobilizer, will this trick works?
i have a 2003 avalon , security light flashing, it wont start , i bought the car with a metal key with no chip , will programming a key solve the problem?
I want to turn my crown with a uzs186 into a all wheel drive what transfer case would you recommend
Hi, can it work on my 2000 toyota land cruiser HDJ100 diesel ?
Since 15 days my does not want to start.
Hello Revved,
first thing to understand the functionality of immobilizer. immobilizer works only when you turn on ignition, if security code match at turning on point with the ECU code then everything keep working until you turn off the ignition.
keep in mind ignition on doesn't mean you started your engine, ignition means engine can be start but you have to self start it by rotating the key one step ahead.
if you turn on ignition with original key then its no matter you put anther key or change ECU with other one.
that's not the bypass.
Brother my car starts and off suddenly after few seconds
How to fix it please suggest me
@@MTaha-je4yj what make and model your car is. And check is there any security li8 in the meter cluster or if its not avaiable. Then check your engine li8, is it blinking repeatly when you turn on ignition ?
My friend one question, i bought an used ECU, same make and model can i bypass the immobilizer, it cranks and also sounds like it wants to star but then stops, by the way my car is a 2001 hyundai Santa Fe 2.4 liter Manuel transmission, made in Korea, i know for sure my original ECU it's bad, because it does no communicate with my scanner, and the used one that i bought it does communicate with my scanners so that gives me hope to start my car, can you help me buddy. Thanks in advance...
@@LuisMartinez-fr9gq Brother, this Hyundai Santa has Immobilizer Code in 2 places .1 in ECU and second in Immobiliser device, your Key and immobilizer code are the same as it was original, but due to change of ECU, now your ECU cannot recognize the original code because it has other code in it.
you just need a Good Machanic who can reprogram its ECU to match your Immobilizer code.
it will only cost $30 - $35 in Pakistan , but in your country, i can't say anything.
GOOD LUCK.
@@talharafique8913 Hello Buddy, thank you for your advice and knowledge, i will check this with a mechanic, I'm glad you told me this i thought it only has one immobilizer on the ECU, but now i know. One question, do you think it's a way to bypass the new ECU Buddy.
What a nice trick you made! Excellent. If you dig behind a little bit, you were be able to locate and replace the key code IC from the old ECU to the new replacement ECU and make it a permanent solution without re-flashing and reprogramming the immobilizer and ECU after replacement. Regards,
+LearningZone how can I replace the ic key code (ic900) from the old to the new without reflasing the ecu?
+Matan Rotem You can reprogram or swap the key code IC form older ECU to newer ECU.

@@JahanZeb1976 can you explain how to do that Sir.
You know how I can bypass immobilizer on my 2004 Mazda Miata ? Intermittent not reading my key. Been stuck a couple of times. Don’t have the funds to get new ones. Please help if you can or point me to where I can get help. Thanks
Try seeing if you can replace just the immobilizer reader. Sometimes it’s the reader not doings it’s job and not the key. I’ve done it multiple times on Honda’s but not sure if you can do it with Mazda. Call your local Mazda to see if you need to program the reader as well. Good luck
My Acura 2004 rl immobilizer is bad according to Acura dealership they wanted to replace it for a huge amount. Any suggestions for me?
Is it an intermittent issue? Sometimes it starts and sometimes it doesn’t? Is the green key still flashing with the ignition all the way on?
Revved Up Knowledge thanks for replying. I lost my keys they told me my immobilizer is bad which need to replace in order for them to make and program the new keys. I have no ideas if is the intermittent issues. For now that what I been told in order to have the car running.
Did they say it was the module or the reader that was bad or maybe both?
Well in any case you can buy a used set of Keys with the matching ECU(computer), with ignition switch and immobilizer module used on eBay and you can either change them all out yourself or pay someone to do it. I saw a used set for around $300. You can also remove all your door locks and have a locksmith re-key the locks to match your new set of keys as well.
Revved Up Knowledge they only told me my immobilizer is bad. Ohh man used keys with ecu then replace all doors lock seems so much money might be the same amount of money the dealership is asking? Anyway sir thank you for replying appreciate it!
Is this trick sir accurate to do this in 2006 HI-ACE I replace the old one computer and change the 2ndhand computer ..still cranking but will not start .is this accurate to do this trick sir..thank you
Will your key they get reprogrammed by itself to work with new ecu?
No you must get it programmed
I have a Isuzu kb 320 v6 that does not want to start how can i bypass immobilizer? The old engine was not using immo and the one i fitted in is using immo

This worthy thousand comments.
Good job 1 question how could you know you have a bed ECU VI SCANNER?
I had same problem but I was referred to *cyber_kor* on Instagram who got mine fixed for me. You should try him today. He is also on WhatsApp +1 347 830 3644
I replaced the ignition lock and key cylinder switch on my 98 Avalon, but it won't start. Do I have to program/code it to get the car to start? The new one is in and the old one is out.
+DadSkip if you still have the old key, i would take the new ignition lock and the old key to a locksmith to match the old keys to the new lock. that way you can use your old keys that has the programmed chip in it. its the easier approach and you'll only need one key to open the door and start it.
I have a 2002 Toyota highlander. Im thinking the immobilizer system might be the same as this model? Honestly, i just want to completely remove the immobilizer. Does anyone know how I would do that?
good video, my question is will this work for say an rsx? does the ecu have to be a direct replacement? do you have to swap the wires on start every time? could you run both ecu's plugged in?
do you think it will work on a 2002 camry? its throwing a p0301 code. changed coils, injectors and plugs and still misfires. did a compression test and all is good. checked electrical wires and all ok. I'm stuck. i have a donor pcm just to get that code and cyl 1 misfire away.
stuck. did a helical job to the block and had the head check and done up. just really frustrated with this and now moving to thinking maybe a bad pcm
Sounds like you might have an intake gasket leak (or injector seal or even bad manifold) on that cylinder probably. If it was misfiring all cylinders I would say ecu issue.
ok i will look into that. I changed, cleaned and tested all injectors out yesterday. put new top and lower injector seals from toyota. reset the pcm by having the battery disconnected for some time then started the car. always when cold or letting it sit overnight it will run fine for a couple of minutes maybe longer at times then slowly gets into its misfire mode. have heard and read on forms about these plastic intake manifolds going bad but didn't think this one can potentially be it. thank you for the reply
after every time you disconnect the battery, you will loose the memory for the throttle position. you have to re-learn the throttle values. to do so do this
1. reconnect battery
2. warm up car to normal temp(press on gas if needed)
3. after doing so turn off car
4. turn engine back on with all accessories off
5. Pull e-brake (hand brake) all the way up and shift the car into drive, slowly let go of the brake making sure the ebrake is holding the car back properly.
6. leave in that position for 5-10 minutes without pressing the accelerator or until the idle of car rises by itself. if it does so then the car relearned its throttle values back
7. if the idle did not go up by itself and is wanting to shut the engine off, you must take the intake tube off and clean the throttle body off of carbon build up and repeat the process earlier
hope this helps and isn't too confusing
After all it was a bad coil. After swapping some around it still misfired at the same cylinder. Bought a set of densos off amazon for a great price {replaced all 4} then then reset ecu and setting throttle values doing your streps. Now the car runs like new. FINALLY the headache is over...Thanks for the help and advice.

Hi i lost my suzuki swift key and i dont have any thing to recover its key so plz help me how to strte my car
I have a 2009 Hyundai Tuscon my imboilzer light doesn’t come and won’t start I get a 0560 code and 1676 if I have replace my mobilizer would I just need another Ecu I have both keys
how old is your battery? sometimes when your vehicles battery does not have sufficient power i could trigger those codes on your Tucson. if it is fairly old i would try and unhook it have it fully charged and see if that helps. you might have to clear your codes via a scanner as well. if you do end up replacing the immobilizer piece, you would need to get it reprogrammed to your keys and or ecu.
Thanks for the vid. I have a 2000 Avalon that is running rich on bank 2, misfires like crazy. no CEL on, scanned it seen fuel trim way up bank one,shut the computer out ,in service mode engine corrects its self for the most part..Does this sound like symptoms of a bad ECU?
+TheOwen1974 thanks for watching!! I would check the vvt oil control valve on bank 2(front of car if you didn't know already). with that being bad could make the whole bank misfire. Seen plenty of those engines with that problem. Check that first, its easy to take off, just a plug and one 10mm bolt.
How to reset key on honda pilot
Recently I lost my 01 VW Jetta 2.0l key so what I did was I replaced he cylinder key lock and put one from a 2001 VW Jetta vr6 that had with the key and I replaced the computer as well or the ecm and once I went to try and turn it on the immbolizer light came on and doesn’t want to turn on...? Any help
Jorge Salas Thank you so much for watching the video! If you haven’t yet Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE! Had a similar situation happen to me at my shop, someone stole a bunch of keys and I was left with replacing all the keys missing. I had to call a mobile locksmith come out and re program new keys. Did your key and ecm also come with the immobilized ring(reader)? Sometimes you’ll need that too
On vehicles with the immobilizer on the instrument cluster, do you still need to program the ecu?
Hi Does this method work on a 2000 honda Accord LX vtech ULEV 2.3L F23A1 with a flashing green key. I replaced the ECU and the Ignition switch w/ key and Immo (USED)EVERYTHING WORKED GREAT SWITCH AND KEY and now cranks but no start and the green key just flashed foreverrrrrrr non stop help. thanks P.N.
+thomas edwards unfortunately i have tried this and it doesn't work on Honda/Acura's . I tried this on an Acura MDX and they share the same immobilizer system. You have to get it programmed. i have a few questions for you, how many keys did they give you and do you still have the other keys (original ones) on the key ring next to the key that starts the car?
+Peter “LikesToFixIt” Nguyen Hi Peter first i should say this vehicle never started after adding components that were worn out the last was the ignition switch that was sticking so i decided to change the switch with key and i got a good deal and they added the ECU tested good they said both the old and replaced ECU's only had one key and they were never on a key ring together ever. Seems like everything is working it's just the immo green key flashes constantly. please ask me more question i really need help. thanks peter for responding.
+thomas edwards sorry took long to reply hopefully you have it sorted out by now. Seems like the key needs to be re-synced with the immobilizer system
how would I do this for a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse with a 3.0 v6?? it's pin 51-111 or is there a way to eliminate it completely. my keyless entry fob took a shit. and car won't do anything anymore
+Cody Burgess is it a factory keyless entry fob? if it is factory your key should disable it once you use your key to unlock the door or switch the ignition to the on position. If it is an aftermarket alarm system then you can take out the alarm system and reconnect all the wires that were cut
Factory. I have gotten most to work. But the fob. And the immobilizer has all spark and fuel shut down. No crank no start
Well I am kinda desperate so here goes, I have Toyota Yaris 99 and lost the keys. From what I read so far, Id have to replace whole ECU (which is not financially viable). Is there anyway to get this started without original keys? Is there any way to get Yaris 99 to start without original transporder?
you have to get new keys made and have a key company or the dealer sync your new keys with the car again
Hey mate, hope you are ok.
I have an Opel Astra G 2001. No start, but engine turns over when ignition turned. No spark either, and I believe there is an immbilizer problem. How can I bypass the transponder?
+Walagala Emmanuel Harry i'm not familiar with that car as i live in the United States. Let me ask you some questions. Does fuel pump up to the fuel rail/injectors? Is there a Key symbol on the dash or anything with immobilizer lighting up when you turn your ignition on?
Revved Up Knowledge Does this only work on older model cars
Great video please could you explain little bit about Toyota Mark 2 1JZ
On a lexus is200 2001-2 year, this it not work.i tried a lot of times, and no luck...When plug into the old ecu, security light stop blink(with key on) then when back the connector to the new ecu, it start blink again, and to starting engine..
On a 2001 Toyota RAV4 the engine starts fine , I’ve had to replace the computer because it damaged the transmission. I put new computer in and now engine only cranks but will not start. Funny thing is this RAV4 doesn’t have any theft deterent devices on it just one black head Toyota key NO security light on dash . Code is B2796 no comms with immobilizer . Now would all I need is to have a new key cut and programmed and if so what is it going to program if car it self has NO theft deterrent devices just the new computer?
I would go back and get another computer. Happened to one of my customers cars I did but luckily Toyota warrantied the one I bought.
Revved Up Knowledge yes sir I have another computer already being shipped to me, I explained to them the situation and they are saying they may have sent the computer with immobilizer integrated in ECU so now their sending one without hopefully that’ll be it thanks for your response much appreciated
Yea on my customers some short in the electrical system caused the immobilized system to activate itself. This was 5 months after the new computer was installed. All is well now with it so thank god!
Good luck!
I enjoyed the video. I’m curious will this trick work on a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix
Great video did you know where can reprogram ecu on 2005 Honda CR-V and how much they charge I hope you can answer my questions thank you
I have an 04 Infiniti i35 and my immobilizer is connected to the ignition. There's only one plug, you think I could still do this with only the one plug?
What was the original ecu doing before you installed the used one? My 1998 avalon security light is blinking when I try to start the car and it won't start. Nothing is firing on the car.. If I buy a used ecu, will I be able to do what you did and get it started? Thanks so much if u have more information.
Hey Victor, thanks for watching!! The original ecu in this car was overheating and would die out after 10 minutes or so of the car being on. It would let me start again after 20-30 minutes after cooling down. It seems like your issue is your keys. The computer isn't recognizing the keys immobilizer code. You can have your keys reprogrammed at your local dealer or a locksmith company. Some shops have those programmers as well. Most high end diagnostic scanners will have that option too if you know anyone with a scanner. Let me know if i can help in any way!
Oh and buying a new/used computer and trying this trick won't work. Original needs to recognize keys first to dis engage the security
So my only option is to have the keys reprogrammed.....
Also, thanks for all the information....
yea either way you go you would need the keys reprogrammed. i would try to get them reprogrammed first before you order the used ecu. there are tons of mobile locksmiths that can do that at your place too so you dont have to tow. just be sure to ask if they still charge even if it doesnt work.
no problem if you have any questions car related i can try and give you my best advice.
Finally a video that's straight on point and worked. Thank You sir
Hello everyone.
I hav a problem with my 2001 honda civic vtec 1.7 eu.
It was driving fine and ignition was faulty n as i was driving some smoke came out from the engine bay.
I stoped on the side of the road n tried to switch off the engine but the ignition systerm was faulty n couldn't go off until i popped up the hood n removed one terminal n the car switched off.
Fixed the starter n put it back, but now ever since that time it cranks but doesn't start n the green key is flashing on the dashboard..
Auto technicians came diagnosed the car n couldn't find any faults.
Has anyone faced this issue before ?
Sir Lexus 250 2015 model can you explain immobilizer Bypass
i had my 2005 accord hybrid steering column destroyed by car thieves is their any way to get it started even though the key ring on ignition was destroyed and how can i defeat the immobiliser???
+Anthony Wynn try this out k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/Immobilizer-Multiplexor-Bypass_p_131.html its usually used for cars with k-series swapped engines but you can always contact them to see if it'll work on your car.
Anthony Wynn you can buy at ebay.
n
there has to be away without doing that using the system to remove that feature altogether and everytime i look on web it keeps going to reset info when i really i just want to see if its possible to not bypass but remove it altogether from the start in programming
I'm looking for that too. I want to completely get rid of the pats because I'm tired of 200 dollar keys and the alarm. Somebody destroyed my ignition and module so now i cant even start my van. Ford referred me to car toys. People act like its some sacred ancient knowledge.
Will that work for a 2005 Honda Accord 2.4l ?
No sorry
Peter, I tried this hack several times, swapping out ecu in 2000 Avalon. Is there something i missed, did exactly what you did with no luck. please advise. thx.O
+TheOwen1974 does the original ecu work still or completely dead?
+Peter “LikesToFixIt” Nguyen Again , Thank you for the help..original ecu still works ,a friend of mine has a Snap-on Modis handheld, he isolated the ocv and can trigger it on and off , ocv's seem to be fine, and were new last year along with the o2 sensors. when it warms up ,it starts idle searching , and dumping fuel into bank 2. if we shut the ecu out and put it in service mode it straightens out and the misfire goes away. originally I thought the vvt gear may be sludged or worn at the locking pin but now thinking its the ecu. the kicker is no codes..sorry to keep asking questions, but you seem to be the only guy (on the tube)who knows what you're talking about..
+TheOwen1974 hmm this is tough without me physically checking the car. I had a similar situation happen to my mother in laws RX300. Ran flawlessly before warmed up, but when fully warmed up it would run way under powered and if i feather the throttle the idle would surge up and down( no check light on or anything). Drove around making the engine surge up and down till light came on. Checked it and codes came back as a bad OCV for bank 1. Changed bank 1 OCV and symptoms were gone. I checked the bad valve by running some current through it and it worked fine but in the car it wasn't working properly.
Try and run the car long enough while its idle searching so that the check light will come on. I don't think its a faulty ecu. wish i could physically check the car for you! let me know if this helps or not so i can try and help stil
Hi how could I do this to a 2005 Toyota Solara 4 cylinder , swap my ECU but car won't turn over ?
i haven't tried with this year toyota but it might work. have you tried following this procedure?
I have a2002 smart car from Europe I did the engine rebuild n now the car won't star is Immobilizer what can I do bcs the Smart in USA star fron 2008 if you have any idea let me know thanks
Jose Osejo if you just did a engine rebuild then your car should still start up because usually when rebuilding an engine we normally don't change out the ecu. You might have a crank/cam sensor problem or possibly something was not plugged in or even a simple ground wire. let me know hopefully that helps
The car cranks but won't star n also I replace the crankshaft censor n the my scanner don't read nothing bcs the year where I can get the electric diagram or something for the car
Jose Osejo ok heres some basic diagnostic rules i go by and you wont need a scanner for it. First thing i would look for is spark. To do this you would need a helping hand. First disconnect the spark plug wire or direct coil, find a used or new spark plug and plug it on the spark plug/coil. Holding the wire/coil far away from the spark plug as possible(so you don't get shocked)then set the tip of spark plug on a ground on the engine or if the valve cover is aluminum then rest it on that. Have your friend crank it and see if you can detect any spark (do this at your own risk as you can harm yourself by getting shocked, i am not responsible if you cause any harm to yourself, others or your car) if no spark then either your timing is off, bad sensors, bad ecu or no power/ground to ecu. Oh another question, does your check engine light come on when you cycle the key?
keep getting it vu bba
Will this work for the volvo S80
Not too sure. Haven’t had a chance to try it out yet
awesume !! does it last after you shot down and take the key out ??
.Thanks for commenting!! As far as i know, the trick will work even if you start and turn on the car over and over again. Just don't remove the computer, take battery off or take out the ecu fuse!
I think my ECM is on its way out as well on my nissan altima 2.5. I have a remote starter and 2 keys, and sometimes the car locks up randomly and wont start with the code for immobilizer/ECU. I have tried using both keys and just the remote starter and it still does the same thing. Usually it will eventually start back up after 20 min to 1h if u let it sit and so far always starts right up from a cold start. Any thoughts on what it might be? in the mean time i might buy a ECU, Key and immobilzer combo on ebay.
i would try and remove the remote starting system first unless you really want the remote start system then i would take it to a dealership or some place reputable.
Peter Nguyen thanks for the suggestion, but I now know that it is the ECU. I'm no longer getting communication with the obd scanner and the security light is permanently off. I'll be towing the car to the dealer.
@@PopoRamos just reading through the threads and saw your message. Im curious as to if it was your ecu. I'm having the same issue with my Infiniti. The sucurity light was on, I messed with this and that and now it won't communicate with the odb2 and the security light went off but still won't start. I don't want to pay the dealership $300 to reprogram the key if that's not the issue.
@@jasonapostolec it was a combination of the ECU and the remote starter. If you have a remote starter and your having issues, have the shop take the remote starter out and your problems will go away. Back to the old fashioned start up.
If your ECU is dead, get one from the junk yard or eBay. Depending on how old your car is you might be able to buy the dealer software and program the keys yourself much cheaper (that's what I did) but my car is 15 years old
I was wondering if this would work for an acura rsx type s 05? Possibly?
i have a 1998 Lexus sc400 and it wont start after the alarm went off and i had to call a locksmith to unlock the doors. I dont have the original key but the key starts the car what could i do? PLEASE HELP!
+Raymond Kelley thanks for watching and commenting!! the key you have starts the car and it runs fine?
Yes it starts it and the car runs perfect
if everything runs fine then you'll be fine. its possible the keys you have is already programmed to that ecu's immobilizer or if it doesn't have a chipped key then you might have a JDM Ecu.
The key hasnt worked since the anti theft was armed. It stopped the alarm when i turned the key but now doesnt want to start. Is my key the problem or is it the ecu?
is there a key emblem, anti theft or security light flashing on the dash display?
You sure lost me there, I dint know which ECU you were using, though it is very noble of you to share some information for free to be used by us to make money
Sorry I lost you on that. The original ecu was still bolted into the car. The one hanging was the used ecu. I don't mind giving free info especially if it helps people who like to do things themselves or just don't have the extra money to pay someone else to do it. Of course people can always donate to me 😉
Peter Nguyen hello i hope u can help me i have 2013 sonata it has a code thingy on it i didnt have money to pay the pmyt this week i had pneumonia and the car place they r pretty mean..but i really would like to get to the store im n need of things but without a code the car wont start.
it is illegal (federal law) to bypass a lenders lockout device. No locksmith or anyone else will help you!!
Suggestion, do not agree to a lockout with a lender. Those types are HOPING that you fail to pay so the can seize and resell the vehicle over and over again.
I want to work with you how to apply for a job
Hi my brother I have Land Cruiser 2002 I need to cancel the security how do you in the device Bypass thank you
the sentry system light comes on when starting my 2001 jeep grand cherokke and shuts the truck off after two seconds both keys are origanal please help ive been to 2dealers and 2 mechanics still no resolve
+Mark Depelham sorry haven't replied, hopefully you have it sorted out by now. if not i thinkg it might need a new immobilizer module (ring that reads the key) and reprogrammed
Hi Peter! I was thinking about purchasing a Toyota Avalon that was jump started incorrectly. The person who has the car says it has no spark or injector pulse.. He say he replaced the computer, but it still won't start.. How is the ECU supposed to be replaced? Also, is getting the car started going to be a challenge?
What year is the avalon and ask them if they still have the original ecu. When jumped incorrectly it shouldn't burn the ecu. Only thing that usually happens is the alternator or main fuse will blow before anything else. Should be a real easy fix. In the case that the ecu is damaged, replacing it will need to be synced to your car/immobilizer system with a Toyota dealer grade scan tool or one that can reprogram the computer. In my 10+ years of working I've never seen an ecu that got fried from jumping wrong =) and I've seen plenty of those wrongly jumped batteries
@@RevvedUpKnowledge Thank You for that bit of info. That is exactly what happen to my 2008 LS460. I got *key not detected*. this is push button ignition and not keyed. I will look for Alternator main fuse again, its the 30 amp square with window, it does seem intact and has continuity.......
Ordered a replacement ECM on line programd to my FOB with my VIN number but the car still does not crank or start, oh and the push button is only faintly lit, not green, just faint amber! I wish someone with same problems has a solutionn!!!!!!!!
Does this work on a 2001 maxima
Not sure. Haven’t had a chance to try it on an older Nissan
So to hack immo, you need à working ECU and a working key ? 😅😜
Alot of different types of hacks in the world require some peice of hardware in one way or another. If you're not reverse engineering the software you're usually reverse engineering the hardware
@@thatdamnmanhd7984 true yes
Or just disassemble the ecu, read the chip with xprog and use something like abrites to write immo data in to the new key.
You can also remove the EEPROM from the old ECU and fit it to the new ECU
And how can i do this?
hey peter to make a ling story short we have a 2001 toyota avalon..which we just had to replace the ignition switch and ignition switch housing because the old ones were broke.called a dealership and they said it would be 1000 to program tht key to tht computer in the car..is there any way to get it started?
+Jae Clardy whoa $1000.00??!?!?!?!?! thats insane. I'm assuming your new stuff came with a new key, what you can do if you still have your original key, i would take the ignition lock assembly back out and bring it to your local locksmith and have them match the ignition lock with your original key, that way 1: you wont have to reprogram your immobilizer system and save money and 2: you'll only need one key to enter and start your car still
+Jae Clardy oh and matching the lock to your key shouldn't cost you more than $50 bucks probably
Thank you.But i dont have my original keys any more.
Jae Clardy then the only thing i can suggest is to call a local locksmith and see how much they would charge to reprogram the immobilizer
Will this work for an Nissan Altima 2002 ? im having the same issue
I've tried on nissans and unfortunately it didn't work
Can you do this with a 2006 nissan maxiam???
What if the ignition is gone because someone tried to thief my 2007 dodge caravan? Can it still be done?
No
I was having problems with my 99 accord ecu. All i did was swap out immobilizer chip. Works fine.
Where is the chip located
Ok well there is a chip in the key that is read by the immobilizer transponder And sent to the ECU there is also a chip in the ecu that you can remove or buy a bypass chip and replace
Where do i get a crank sensor for mitsubishi colt rodeo 2400i model 2007 on the engine
does this work on a lexus gs 300 2006? security light blinking car wont start
I have tried this method on a 2000 GS300 and worked as well. On those years the immobilized plug is the grey one
Revved Up Knowledge how about 98 Lexus LS400?
Any chance this works on a 02 es300
Tiger Gray: Sorry a little late but yes good chance this may work but it only for testing purposes. If it does work then get the donor computer programmed with your original keys!
Gary Davis: Yes good chance this may work too but it only for testing purposes. If it does work then get the donor computer programmed with your original keys!
2002 Chevy Impala that will not start. Dashboard will come on but the key will not turn to the start position. Car ran and started fine all day but now it wont start. We changed the ignition switch and cylinder but that didn't work.
+alysia Porter with the new cylinder it should turn all the way. Did you check for any debris left in there from the old cylinder before putting new one? Something could be blocking it from turning all the way. Is the car all the way in park? if it is try putting it in neutral if you can, to see if that will let you start the car, if it does than you either need to replace your Neutral safety switch, adjust it or the shift cable could be bad as well. let me know as much detail as possible because these things are really hard to diagnose without me physically checking it myself
thanks
Does anyone know if this would on a 2008 lancer gt? Or if its possible?

The Dealer told me my car, 2004 ML350, can not be fixed. The AAM went out and is now obsolete. Does anyone know a work a round because these computer are specific to each car and you can not substitute used parts. Great body , tires, interior, I need help!?
how would do this for a 1997 Ford Expedition ?...thanks In Advance
+Lasonya Cole sorry i can't help here, i have't come across this on a ford, i work on them but mostly imports
Peter Nguyen thanks for getting back to me
Hello Dear,
My SEAT LEON 2014 1.2L TSI's ECM was damaged due to short in O2 sensors wiring, it's confirmed that my old ECM is faulty and I just bought another ECM from junk same car.
Now my car just started for 1-2 seconds and then turned off due to Immobilizer mismatch between second ECM and the car itself.
My question is which CHIP I need to replace between two ECMs to match Immobilizer system? which IC stored the Immobilizer code?
Or How can I program the new ECM in details?
Below ECM details:
printed outside on case of ECM: VW AG 04E 907 309 A
Control Module Part Number: 04E 906 016 C
HW: 04E 907 309 A
Appreciate your quick reply.
BR,
How to bypass the Toyota ECU that has two connectors only ?
Can it be left off?
hey do you know how to doit on a 2001 nissan sentra and does it works on it
Dude your absolutely smart lol.. Wow never thought of that. So will the car start all the time now with the used ecu? Or is this temporary like you said in the video?
+Jahmar Robinson Thanks! it started pretty much every time i turned it on and off. It wont start again if the battery dies or power to the ecu is lost.
+Peter “LikesToFixIt” Nguyen Thanks for your swift response. Wow, I never knew that would even be possible. I have a 1998 Infiniti Q45 and it's giving me some ECU issues and so I ordered a ECU from eBay and since I have a transponder key I'm going to have to do this method until I could afford a Lock Smith to program the key to the ECU and as you probably already know, infinities aren't cheap. So let me be the first to tell you thanks you for showing us this!
No problem. Just to let you know i have only tested this method on Toyota/Lexus and Honda/Acura cars. The Honda/Acura did not work with this method. I have not yet tested this method on Nissan/Infiniti cars yet.
+Peter “LikesToFixIt” Nguyen Thanks for letting me know. Well as soon as I try I'll let you know if it worked out or not Thanks again bro.
no problem and thanks for taking the time out and watch the video!
I have a 01 civic ex that someone tried to steal last night... Now my ignition is completely torn apart and when I try to crank it the green key flashes on my cash. Is there any way to quick fix this until I can replace my ignition
check to see if the immobilizer ring (black with a green plug) is plugged in. if its damaged as well then you have to buy a new reader as well
@@RevvedUpKnowledge it us plugged in but there is another one the sits on the inside of it that is broke. But my whole ignition is torn apart and screwed. Having to use a screwdriver to turn on the inside
@@RevvedUpKnowledge any way to bypass or reset????
Try holding the key or putting the key in the ignition (even if it’s messed up) and turning the switch with the screwdriver
Has anyone tried this on a 2002 Lexus GS 300 or knows if this may work on that kind of car as well?
We are have the same issue on our 99 jeep grand Cherokee limited 4.7 its does the same thing but the jeep is being turned off my the immobilizer. Help!!
Gravy Larance if it is the immobilizer than you will need the to get it re coded. any locksmith should have software to reprogram this. You do need all the keys though (main key, spare key, valet key, etc..) if they can't code it than you might have a bad ecu and most likely not charged for the service( ask before hand just in case if you'll be charged if you run into that situation)
We bought the jeep used and came with some walmart type key. We had a locksmith come out and made us a new key using a skim code. They also needed the last 8 of the vin as well. After that we set off the alarm and didnt know how to shut it off. So we unplugged the battery. It was going nuts horn and flashing light. Jeep would not start. After letting it sit for almost 2 hours in a parking lot it started back up and died suddenly. The lights all stay on. It seems like it just shut down the motor and solid key light is seen on dash. It stops us from restarting the jeep. After about 30-45 min the guages come back to life and you can start it again. It Will run again for about 30 and dies like clock work. Replaced crank sensor, oil pressure sensor, coolent temp sensor plugs and coils. Fuel pump does make the pumping sound after restart. 45 pounds of pressure at rails after restart. So we are getting air fuel and spark. Stumped yet?! Me too. All grounds are tight. Full of oil and trans fluid also. Lost and cluesless!!
The only code thrown is P0443 replaced the evap sensor no change. Any tips on what that code means??
hi! could this work the same way on my mazda demio from 1998?
I you have made an impression if that is real very good trick to not need to do reflahs the computer
Still need to re-flash to make it permanent. It’s only for testing
Hi,
Should we address you as Mr. ChickenDinner? ;-)
You seem knowledgeable and fair minded (a rare combination these days) so I'd like to see what you have to say about the following puzzle...
I have a 2001 Explorer that a kid (now in the army) had major surgery done on. It now has a 2006 Explorer engine (professionally installed) and a standard tranny where the automatic once was. He told his Dad (who just wanted it out of his driveway) that it needs a new GEM/BCM but I don't want to start just throwing parts at it.
The "theft" light is on before I even put the key in and I'm not even certain it's a properly coded key.
When I tried jumping the starter relay, all that happened was the heater fan came on.
It probably is looking for the neutral safety switch as well.
Lotsa fun, huh??
I've been learning about bypasses and your ECU trick sounds promising.
Do you have any suggestions/hunches???
Thanks much,
BE
+Liberallez sounds like you have a mess on your hands! ok i have a question for you. What ECU is it using? we can start from there. i have done a few automatic to manual conversions and in most cases its still possible to use the automatic ecu/ecm/pcm etc.. what you have to do in most cases is to fool the car is in Park (to start the car and to take the key out of the ign). thanks for watching and commenting on the video and i hope i can help you sort out your issues on the explorer

Thanks...I'll get the ECU info to you, possibly tomorrow.

+NguyenerWinner ChickenDinner
Hi,
After going over the shop manual, the best I can figure is that this car doesn't have an actual ECU.
It has a bunch of different modules like the power train module, anti-theft/immobilizer, etc. and it has what is referred to as a "multi-function module" which is also called the Generic Electronic Module but the list of it's functions doesn't seem to include anything but body stuff like wipers, windows, etc.
That module's number is 1L5T-14B205-BE. There is also a large letter B near that number.
Does all that tell you anything?
Thanks,
BE
PCM(powertrain control module) would be the one your going to look for. trying to see if they changed that out or if its still the original one that came with the suv. If they used the original engine wiring harness and is still using the original PCM and assuming it all the plugs plug together(or modified to work) correctly, it should start up or at least let you crank it over. You might want to try and find the neutral safety switch (its the electronic piece that the shifter rod is connected to on the transmission) on the automatic transmission (take it off and plug it on the harness on the car) and switch the switch to the park position.
+NguyenerWinner ChickenDinner
Very interesting...thanks.
I'll get back to you as soon as I have something new to report.

Got a jaguar on the same management gonna give this a try thank you 😂
I need help with a 99 Discovery 2
It's not starting and I dont have the Fob key programmed
There's no transponder in those keys, you have another issue
Great video ! Unfortunately didn’t work on a 2004 Highlander. 😔
Thank you 🙏🏻. Dang sorry it didn’t work for yours
Will this work 0n 2002 Honda Civic LX Sedan ? ? ?
Can this work for any car?
So far I have only tried this on this Avalon and an Acura MDX and the Acura did not work. But this might work on most Toyota/Lexus around the same years
Oh OK thank you
i have a 2000 avalon and the keys got lost how do i start my car i live in kansas nowhere and no toyota dealers what can i do
+lee cullum
Sounds like you need to have new keys made and maybe a new ignition lock and then probably bypass the transponder...look around on YT.
+lee cullum you need to call a locksmith or bring to dealer and make new keys and program them
What about civic 2001 1.7 if i swap the ecm
you will need the key and immobilizer system reprogrammed
Nice job
Thank you 🙏🏻
If you have a working key and a good ecu just switch out the 93c56 from the bad ecu problem would be fixed no need for the unplug replug b/s bypass
Hello friend, do you know if the 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.4 liter has the same chip 93C56. TO switch it to my used ECU that i just bought??? Thanks in advance...
Will this work on a 05 Toyota corolla I need to know asap
Sorry not too sure of this. These are a lot newer than the one I tested and the likely hood of it working is slim
Will this trick work for 2006 gs300 lexus? It has the same 6 plug
I have tried this method on a 2000 GS300 and worked as well. On those years the immobilized plug is the grey one
For how long can you drive your car like this
