Electronic Immobilizers



Electronic immobilizers Among all types of anti-theft devices, electronic engine immobilizers protect you best against vehicle theft. Electronic immobilizers require a special key or small electronic device to start a vehicle's engine. Usually you attach this to your key ring. When activated, the immobilizer shuts off one or more parts of the engine's electrical system. This might include the starter, ignition or fuel system. It is unlikely that a thief can bypass these disconnected parts and start the vehicle. For maximum protection, choose a device that will prevent your vehicle from being started even if the device is damaged or torn from the vehicle.
