2008 Mazda 2 - Immobiliser issue?

[becky221093]

Hi there my 2008 Mazda 2 currently will not start. I am new to this forum so any help would be greatly appreciated.

when i turn the key to start the engine the immobiliser light flashes and the engine does not start. you can hear the fuel pump kick in but thats it.

I have tried plugging a generic OBD2 machine in and it comes up with no fault codes. Hoping and praying that is not going to be an expensive fix and willing to try anything!

Thank you in advance!!

Do you have two keys / transponders ? Does the same thing happen with both? Did you try changing the remote battery?

Probably won't do any good but maybe try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes.
