Understanding Commodore Keys and Immobilisers

For most vehicles, the remote isn’t required to start the car. However, with the Commodore models listed above, the remote also functions as the immobiliser. There are two ways to turn off the immobiliser:

1. By unlocking the car with the remote and starting the vehicle within two minutes.
2. If the remote doesn’t unlock the car, manually unlock it with the key, insert it into the ignition, and turn it on. If the receiver on the remote head is close enough to the reader around the ignition, it should start.

If the car doesn’t start, check the red flashing light located to the left of the steering wheel or above the radio. If the light doesn’t go out when the key is turned, it’s time to call us for a new remote. The good news is that Commodore remotes are relatively inexpensive, making it a good idea to consider purchasing a second remote as a backup.

Tips for Troubleshooting Low Battery Issues

When the battery in your Commodore remote starts to run low, there are a few tricks you can try to get the car started:

• For VR, VS, and VT models, leaving the key in the “on” position for a few minutes may help start the car. However, this is a temporary solution to get you from point A to point B and should not be relied upon as a permanent fix.

For reliable operation, it’s best to replace the remote as soon as possible to avoid being stranded.
