• Pull the immobilizer bulb from the instrument cluster.
• Once the ecu is returned and installed, the non-immobilizer start relay is in place and the immobilizer bulb is pulled, you’re good to go!

Can the immobilizer be completely removed?

• For street cars this is not necessary, and removing the immobilizer / alarm control unit will also remove your keyless entry / top functions, trunk lock.  So we recommend leaving it in on street cars if those functions still work.
• For race cars the immobilizer and associated wiring can be completely removed, saving weight and complexity
• Please jumper the Kline in / out wires so your dme will no directly talk to the diagnostic port vs. through the immobilizer.  that’s Pin 9 and 11 on the immoblizer.  W data line and K data line.
