These are pics of David Hadfield's immobiliser board from an "L" plate 16V that I helped him fix. His symptoms were the usual intermittent engine cut-outs. Hopefully resoldering will cure his troubles. Cost to Dave - just 10 bottles of Bud - cheers Dave. |

| Solder joints 1 and 4 were faulty (the same two as on my board). Joints 2 and 3 also looked a bit suspect. Note the brown discolouration of the board around joint 1 - a sure sign of overheating caused by overcurrent. |
 |
| Joint 1 from another immobiliser (Steven Binns') before it was repaired. That joint has definately been cooked. Note the solder deposits left on the board ... I only noticed this once I had photographed it ... it wasn't really visible to the naked eye. |

| The location of the immobiliser behind the centre console (seen from passenger side with snap fit plastic air duct removed). There are screws on one side and rivets on the other. See homepage for repair instructions. |
