immobiliser

[liljo]

Hello Ant
I am wanting to make my C15 HiTop more secure as it lives on the street, do you know if a steering wheel lock is sufficient or would it be better to fit an immobiliser, how does an immobiliser work and are they very expensive to fit?
Thanks Lin

Hi Lin.
An immobiliser on a C15 need not be expensive at all. On top of the back end of the diesel pump ( front left when looking under the bonnet with 4 pipes coming off the back) there is a device that shuts the diesel supply off to the engine when you turn the key off. On top of this device is a thin green wire, all you need to do is run a secret switch from the dash board and switch the green wire. Unless the secret switch was on the engine would not start, or if it started would stop a few seconds later at not restart.

If by any chance you are going to Kingsbury water park I will fit you a secret wire from your solenoind 12v supply to inside your cab and a switch. £3
I have a dead lock on my rear stable door but was burgled cos I forgot to lock passenger door.

Buy a good steering wheel lock that covers the nut in the centre of the wheel so they can't undo the wheel.

maybe a sensor that sets off a cyanide canister inside would help,or maybe not in our do good society!

I won't be at Kingsbury but I know what to ask for now and you have highlighted the fact that I have a very flimsy lock on my stable door. What sort of place do I need to go to to get a good lock fitted?
