Toro immobilizer issue

Experiencing an immobilizer problem with my 2020 Fiat Toro diesel. It has about 151933 km. The engine either won't start, or starts then stops. Diagnostic tool shows an immobilizer error. Could it be the anti-theft or remote start? Any ideas on causes or troubleshooting?

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Fiat Toro diesel is experiencing an immobilizer issue, where the engine either won't start or starts and then stops, with a diagnostic tool indicating an immobilizer error. The problem persists even with a spare key, suggesting a fault in the immobilizer system rather than key programming. The recommended solution is to visit a workshop with diagnostic tools to check the key and immobilizer module, which led to the discovery of incorrect key programming that was subsequently corrected.

Sounds like a classic immobilizer fault. Could the key programming be incorrect? Have you tried a spare key?

Yes, I tried the spare key, same problem. Any other potential causes, like a faulty transponder or something in the car's immobilizer system?

Since the spare key does the same thing, it probably isn't the key programming, or there's a fault in the immobilizer system. I'd recommend a workshop with diagnostic tools to check the key and immobilizer module. Likely needs key programming.

Took it to a workshop as suggested. The key programming was indeed incorrect. Repair cost 45€ Thanks for the help!
