Vauxhall-Opel Corsa D 1.2 not starting after flat battery... Immobiliser faults and programming.

Great video. Currently I have a similar problem. Airbag bag module soaked with anti freeze. Now I have similar DTC. got a donor airbag module, same part number but didn't work. I'm using IM608. Any suggestions guys.

Big important thank you to LMautos. Finally got my Corsa d fixed without any new parts exactly as you said. Two of the first three mechanics were highly miss leading threatening massive bills and long term off road. The third one was not correct either. Only believing in LMautos led to get in a fourth opinion and it worked out correct. This problem is a minefield for non mechanically minded car owners.

Hoping i can get a question answered quite quickly, good video! Doing self repair fix on my vauxhall corsa d sxi 2008 plate, most likely the passenger door or just the constant closing and opening doors in the car for tools, as self repairing … i noticed the light in the interior of the car stopped coming on, went back to it 5 mins later noticing just the mini screen of the dashboard which is a clock and radio light illuminating, my question is i know i have an imobilliser in my car, and apparently my car has battery discharge protection, now how do i charge my battery as apparently jump starting my model of car seems to trigger mobilliser from based research, the car will not turn on, no light on dashboard at all, does my car have a safety feature to prevent my battery from going completely flat ? I dont want to trigger mobilliser .. any answers thanks Side note: my cars mobilliser triggered few weeks ago, and my car was reprogrammed, so does this prevent this issue fron happening again

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Hi Some cars are designed to disable certain systems if the battery starts to get to low, bug if you leave the car for too long, there is a drain, or the battery is bad, the battery will discharge completely regardless... There is an update for the BCM to prevent the corruption of the data if the battery gets low, if yours have been definitely updated there is a good chance that that will not happen again, that said, low battery is always a no no... To replace the battery, just disconnect the old one and install the new one... that's all... 👍👍👍

What i would have done is first a global scan with a tool that can pull all correct codes like opcom or the GM-tech-2 as that flashing light as far as i know also flashes for automatic transmission faults. Like the implausible torque converter speed codes i had in transmission set by faulty ignition module... on astra z18-xe . That is all i can add for extra tip. Best to always run global scan with a factory level scanner first if possible.

Hello L M, i have a corsa B which my daughter broke in an accident. She crashed the car inte the back of another car at a speed of around 30 km/h. Without placing the key in the ignition, three lights lit: oil symbol (red), batteri symbol (red) and engine (orange). The batteri drains very fast. It drops from fully charged 13.6 volts to under 12.5 volts in only five minutes. After every try i disconnect the battery and recharge it for the next try. The car cranked the second day after the accident but it doesn’t any more. It seems that disconnecting, recharging and then reconnecting the battery burns or damages new elctrical parts (relays?) every time i try to start the car with fully recharged battery. Could you please help me with following questions? - is it the immobilizer that has to be reprogrammed? - do relays break at collision? - i could perhaps stop or minimize battery drainage by pulling out fuses for wipers, headlights, brake lights and one or two other things that still power from the battery but is that because of the immobilizer? - what diagnostic equipment would you suggest me to buy? Thank you for your help.

​@@LMAutoRepairs Hello L M, thankyou so much for your attention and quick answer. I did actually find somerhing that looked like a sensor (probably attached some how to the radiator) now just hanging unattached to anything. I Will check again. Thank you for your advice on getting an Op-com code reader. I Will. And now a new question: i looked everywhere for an inertia switch in the car which is from the year 1999-2000. Didnt find anything. Do These B Corsas have inertia switch at all? Where would it be more likely to be located/found? Thank you so much again for your help and have a good day.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

I am not sure that there is one on that particular car... I mentioned it to brain storm some options...

[@MahmoudMahmoudi-r3z]

@@LMAutoRepairs Thank you for your answer again. I have looked for it, googled a lot and nerver found anything. I Will try again. I Will however come back to you when or if i get an Op-com error code reader and need instructions on using it. Thanks for all your replies and a very useful video. Have a very good day. MM

Hi there, I'm having the exact problem (same faul codes) with a Corsa d. I got the car like that but i think someone try before and messing around. When i try to resetting the ecu with the right pin it tell me is wrong pin but i check the mileage, vin etc.. it looks like is genuine one from the car. To others module pin is okay. I did without resetting the ecu and still the same nothing changed with same fauls. Any ideas 🤔? Thks

In some very severe cases, the firmware may go bad. You will need to reprogram the MCU chip.

Good video as always. Shame you didn't use opcom from the start as its something most people have. Also if you have this problem in the future on any Vauxhalls, something to try is to disconnect the negative battery cable and touch it to the positive terminal for a few seconds. It's a common problem on Vauxhall's when the battery has drained.
