j_turnell 137 3 Cars Posted August 25, 2008 It all depends what immobiliser its got and how its been done. But generally all the ones ive seen only take 2-3 mins to bypass. Just look under the dash near the ecu and also sometimes in the fusebox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cazzy93 0 Posted August 27, 2008 i have asked the guy who is selling the car and he says from looking under the dash that its an avital immobiliser if anyone can help on how to bypass this type of immobiliser that would be great cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richie-Van-GTi 71 2 Cars Posted August 27, 2008 follow the wires from the immobiliser, at some stage it will splice into the pug loom, whichever wires are no longer joined need rejoining. Luckily 205 looms are very simple in terms of very few wires and also poorly wrapped so finding the spliced wires will be easy. That or take another gti loom and chuck that in, assuming its not spliced into the ignition switch loom (easy bypass anyway) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
