Why does my Ford Mondeo say immobiliser active?
Due to this however the car has been stood unused for sometime but was working perfectly beforehand. Now though, the ‘Immobiliser Active’ message is displayed and the car will not start/turnover. I have tried a number of things including leaving the battery disconnected over night and also ensuring it has been fully charged.
Can you use forscan on a Ford Mondeo?
I would try Forscan on the car, also. This is a free download, Ford specific system, and is about the best you can get apart from the Ford IDS system. It needs an adapter (ELM327) costing about £16, and a computer of some sort, Windows laptop is best.
Is the diagnostic system on a Ford Mondeo?
The diagnostic system is a Delphi one, the first two codes will delete but return, the last three codes will not delete. I’ve checked the 5amp F36 fuse, which I think is the ABS one and removed and re-seated the relays in the engine bay fuse box.
Where does the CAN bus run on a Ford Mondeo?
It conveys all sorts of digital messages between the modules, and causes massive problems if there is a fault on it. The main CAN bus (HS-CAN) runs from the pcm (engine computer) to the IC (instrument cluster). It has spurs that connect it to other modules in between, including the ABS module.
