Does the vehicle listed above that is a GX model have an immobilizer? It does not start. I think the problem can be immobilizer. Help me.

Start with a scan to check for stored codes. It can tell if it is a problem with the immibilizer or others.

Hi SAM DUSABUBWAMI,

If you decide you would like to conduct the scan yourself here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself. Also, I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.

This is applicable even if your check engine light is not on.

Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com

Once you have the codes please get back to us so that we can further assist you. We are always happy to help.

Thank you for visiting 2CarPros.com.

Kindest regards,

Renee
