Citroen Nemo immobilizer issue
Summary of the thread
A 2011 Citroen Nemo with a gasoline engine is experiencing starting issues, with the engine dying shortly after starting. An error code related to the immobilizer suggests a potential problem with key recognition. The key light flashing on the dashboard indicates the immobilizer isn't recognizing the key, and the same issue occurs with the spare key. The suggested solution is to have the key reprogrammed at a workshop, which resolved the issue for a cost of 45€.

Yeah, the key light is flashing. The spare key does the same thing. Is there a way to bypass the immobilizer?

Bypassing the immobilizer is tricky. It's there to stop thieves. Since both keys are causing the same issue and it's throwing an error code, it sounds like you need to get the key re-programmed at a workshop. They can hook it up and sort it properly.

Okay, thanks! Took it to a local shop, and you were spot on. The key programming was messed up somehow. They reprogrammed it for 45€ and now it runs great.

Sounds like an immobilizer fault. Is the key light flashing on the dash when this happens? If so, the key probably isn't being recognized. Did you try the spare key?
