Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

By immobilizer we mean the coded electronic anti-theft system, installed in the vehicle by the manufacturers, including Volvo. Well, when it goes into security lock, it means that the key has not been recognized and unless the key itself is not working, you need to focus on the transponder present in the ring mounted around the instrument panel cylinder.

In the video uploaded here, a bypass of the aforementioned ring is performed, but the solution also involves disassembly and replacement of the entire piece, easily available in the market, even on major e-commerce sites if desired.
