V50 immobilizer issue

Having a weird immobilizer issue with my 2010 V50 gasoline, about 75000 km. Engine won't start, or starts then dies right away. OBD II shows an immobilizer fault. Tried the spare key, same thing. Any ideas? Feeling lost.

I had exactly the same thing happen with my V50. Same symptoms. Have you checked the ignition control?

Thanks! Can you tell me more? What did you check on the ignition control and how did you fix it? Any details would be great!

It was the key programming. Had to go to the workshop to get it sorted. You'll need to visit a mechanic.

Thanks so much for the advice! Took it to the workshop, and it was the key programming. They reprogrammed it, and now it's working perfectly. Cost was only 45€! Appreciated!
