What does the red immobilizer LED in the center of the dashboard of a Ford Fiesta tell us?
Model: Ford Fiesta
Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI
- Years 2008-2017
Have we ever wondered what the red LED in the center of the dashboard of our Ford Fiesta indicates? It is the immobilizer and in fact, if it works well, no one questions it. With the car off, the LED flashes, indicating that the component is functioning, meaning that the car will only start with the coded key for that specific car, which we have in our possession. When we insert it, the red LED will remain on for three seconds and then turn off: this means it has recognized the key and we can start driving. But what happens if we insert the key and the car does not start? There can be two cases: the key has lost its coding, or the immobilizer has malfunctioned. In both cases, it is a problem that only the Dealer can solve.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y
To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet. by ScegliAuto More videos
