Pixo Immobilizer Issue

My 2009 Nissan Pixo, gasoline engine, won't start. It's got 97137 km on the clock and the immobilizer seems dead. It either won't start, or starts for a split second then dies. There's an error stored. Is it the key?

Sounds familiar. I've got a Pixo myself. Did you try the spare key? Had similar trouble a while ago; is the key signal maybe the culprit?

Spare key makes no difference, sadly. When you say similar trouble, do you mean the exact same symptoms? Did yours also throw up an error code?

Yep, exact same thing. Engine cutting out straight away. In my case, the workshop said it was the key programming gone wrong. It's worth getting it checked out. They sorted it pretty quickly.

Thanks for confirming. Key programming makes sense. Took it to the workshop – faulty key programming was indeed the problem. 45€ and all sorted! Much appreciated!
