When is the immobilizer activated in the Ford Mondeo?

Model: Ford Mondeo / Fusion MK 3 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Checks and maintenance

We need to specify that the vehicle in which this video tutorial was made is a Ford Transit, but since the topic covered concerns various Ford vehicles, including the Ford Mondeo, we can consider it relevant and take it into consideration. The immobilizer is activated when, by inserting the key into the ignition switch to start the engine, it is not recognized, blocking the engine start. As the protagonist of the video mentioned earlier explains and shows us, in most cases this is due to the key being broken or with a low battery, or from the outer ring of the ignition switch, which, if broken, no longer reads the code. How to disassemble and replace it, we see it step by step in the images.
