Technical immobiliser problem

[andrewbayley]

My 2003 Doblo 1.9 JTD won't start. All I get is a clicking noise from under the bonnet. It will start when jumped from another vehicle, but the immobiliser warning light stays on.

sounds like a flat ( faulty) battery,

the clicking is the solenoid in the starter motor ( low power)

IF it actually RUNS with a jump-start.. rather than JUST turning over ( cranking)

chances are a good battery will supply enough power to get the immob. light off too,
