To disable the immobilizer on the Volvo S60, open the hood to access the components in the engine compartment. Here, you will find the fuse box located on the right side of the compartment.

Inside this box, locate the relay that controls the immobilizer. This relay needs to be disconnected and then reconnected, or completely removed.
