Is it a factory fitted immobiliser or an after market jobby?
I imagine it's standard, it's my mum's car so she wouldn't know how to fit one.

Google it - someone will probably have put a "how to" video on YT - or ask the owners club/group on FB - there's bound to be one

Have you tried finding the battery on a car recently? French cunts are the worst - hide them under the passenger seat or deep below mountains of lego under the bonnet that have the sole purpose of making the engine look nice. I remember when most basic under the bonnet could be done with wd40 and a couple of sizes of spanner.Disconnecting the battery would have the same affect I think.

Ha ha....so true. Got a Nissan/Renault Van and for the last 4 years I've not seen it, I've tried, god I've tried to find it....and I recon I'm a bit car savvy. One day !!

I had to buy all sorts of extensions for my socket set to change the battery buried deep within my Peugeot after I'd spent ages figuring out all the plastic trim. What should have been a five min job (battery change) took half a day and cost 25 quid in tools.Ha ha....so true.

BTW - DON'T disconnect the battery without making sure you have made a note of all/any codes you'll need when reconnecting - radio code, key code etc - or you could be getting deeper in the mire.
