Starting Problem

Unread post by KennyW »

Hi Gang,

To start my Xantia I have to crank the engine over 25 to 26 times,then she kicks into life and runs beautifully. :)

But, once started running the key light flashes(immobiliser) and beeping sound starts.these disappear after 2 to 3 seconds. :?

I posted a problem re this in Nov after replacing the ignition barrel, I believe the the recoding of the keys to the immobiliser has not worked correctly.

Can anybody advise me if this is possible and the fix :!:
