100 Series Landcruiser Diesel Intermittent Hard Starting

If you can somehow give me your email address (doubt you want to post it up here?), I’ll send you a how to for bypassing the imobiliser, complete with pictures. I documented it when a mate bypassed my 105 series immobiliser.
EDIT…actually I’ll need to check I still have it after my computer crashed last year. Worst case scenario can ask about it on LCOOL forum, I emailed it to a heap of people on there over a few years, so somebody should have a copy of it.

Thank you, it was your thread from a few years back that prompted me to ask. I’m happy to send you my email address but don’t know how to go about that

Cheers, really appreciate thst

Cheers for that, think I am member

In short, you need to access this solenoid….it won’t look like that now, it’s covered with a black box pictured below.



You need to remove the immobiliser unit that covers the solenoid…. You can drill out the break off security bolts, or I have heard people cut the unit apart with a multi tool, or in the bush they just got a screwdriver and hammer and broke it apart. You can see in the second pic that inside the immobiliser is a wire that bolts onto the solenoid, you need to access the nut on the solenoid and undo the nut, and remove that wire that’s inside the immobiliser ….don’t damage the solenoid though as you remove the immobiliser.
Pic 3… The immobiliser just clamps around the solenoid with the 2 security bolts that hold it on.







You then need to cut the wiring loom off the back of the immobiliser (this unit is what’s stopping your vehicle starting)



Put a electrical lug on the purple wire of the electrical loom you cut off (insulate the other 2 wires)



Then attach that purple wire onto the solenoid with the nut you removed from it earlier, and plug your wiring loom back in…job done



NOTE…you no longer have an immobiliser on your vehicle now, I have no idea if you can get replacements or what’s involved with reinstalling them…but your car will start fine now and not do what it was previously doing.
I have a slightly more comprehensive guide of exactly how we did mine showing the drilling out of the security bolts, but in essence you need to attach the purple wire to the solenoid once you remove the immobiliser.
