Imobiliser
Hi
Can anyone tell me the symptoms of a faulty Imobiliser on a 05 plate R50 .
Apparently it will lock and unlock the ignition lights up with the key in position 2 but nothing happens on turning the key, tried both keys both the same.
Can a bad battery cause it to not even try to turn over?
Thanks Stu

I would love to check power to starter etc but it's about 200 miles away.
Just wondered if a low battery means it won't turn over.
Will get some more info tomorrow and see you Friday.
