I have been looking around the defender td5 (2001) with the Nanocom to get a bit more familiar with what it can do, and I must have pressed something I shouldn't. :( It now no longer starts. Fuel pump operates but.... nothing when I turn the key to on.
If I just have the nanocom connected and look at the "get security status" it tells me the ECU is Immobilised and to press a key to continue.
I assume this is my problem but I cannot see anywhere to reset this.
I have disconnected the battery for a couple of hours and made sure the battery is charged up but no difference
Any help graetfully accepted

cheers

Hi,
had a similar problem when my battery got disconnected for a fraction of a second.
Vehicle is D130 Puma 2009 model.
Checking the manual I discovered I should have:
Windows up, nothing turned on.
Put key in ignition, turn on, turn off, remove key, disconnect battery earth within 15 seconds. (pays to loosen the bolt first)

I did the above, then waited 30 seconds and reconnected the battery.

Yea! it started.l

Check your manual, it may say some thing different.

cheers

I'll give it a go (except the windows probably as they are manul wind, so I don't think the ecu would care too much about them)

Thanks for the help
The turn key on and off and disconnect battery didn't do anything on mine, so I connected the PC back up and it did say passive mode, so I changed that and it still didn't work so I saved the file, then turned off anything I could find to do with the imobiliser and wrote it back to the ECU and it now starts:):)
So I might turn them back on one at a time and see which one it was

cheers
