Markeran Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) I have got a Defender "Puma" 2.4 l, year 2008. When I lock the doors with my pager, the indicator orange lights will flash three times (three short bursts) When I open the doors, the indicator lights flash only one long burst. I have noticed that when I open the locked landy with my pager and that the indicator lights DO NOT light up, it means that I need to change the CR 2032 battery in the pager. After having changed the battery, all the indicator lights light up again as indicated above! This bring me to my question : could a weak CR 2032 battery in the pager not fully "clear" the immobiliser? In other words could not enough voltage in the pager prevent the computer vehicle to transmit the correct signal to the start motor to crank the engine and start it ? The reason for my question is that recently I had a few occurrences when, the turning the contact key once I had all the normal lights lighting up on the dashboard. Turning it one step further to start the engine, absolutely nothing happened. This is not a battery problem as I have got three of them fully charged (two of them new) that I can put in series. I am just trying to determine if it is my pager (when its battery voltage s weak) which does not "fully" activate the system (immobiliser, start motor,...) or if I have got a start motor problem. Your feedback would be appreciated! Many Thanks !!

BogMonster Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 If it's enough to unlock then I think it should deactivate the immobiliser. I'd say you have a separate problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
