An ingenious (though not very convenient) anti-theft system for the Nissan Qashqai is to install a switch on the fuel pump. You need to interrupt the connection to the fuel pump.

Remove the air intake hose to access the fuse box, open it, and lift the engine control unit. Follow the white wire shown in the video.

Be careful, as there are two white wires: one thick and one thin. Do not use the thicker one. You need to cut this wire and reconnect it to bring it inside the car (it should pass through the grommet behind the car horn's siren.

You will need to make a small hole to pass the wire through. This is not shown in the video).

Obtain an on/off toggle switch (which costs a few pounds on all e-commerce platforms) and connect it to the wire. Hide it in a place that is not easily visible, and remember to activate it each time before restarting the vehicle.
