vauxhall vectra b engine management light flashing engine not starting

 

[phawk754]

could be the immobiliser kicking in and stopping the car starting ,,have you drop the key or has the chip fall out of the key ?

do you have a spare key to try ?


might be good to ask a mate to plug a code reader into it ,so you can look up the code to be 100% sure that what it is


what year is the car ?
