To deactivate the immobiliser of the Ford Fiesta, you need to completely remove the module that regulates its operation, so it can be replaced with another equivalent module that allows you to bypass the system. To perform this operation, you will need to dismantle the part of the dashboard immediately below the steering column: here you will locate the control unit that manages the immobiliser's operation.

By disconnecting and loosening the screws that secure this control unit, you will be able to remove it from its housing and insert the new device.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
