kia sportage 97 immobilised?

Hi Guys , I have a very tricky one for you .

The car was stolen - ignition 1/2 ripped out and hot wired . But it started and ran really well so I bought it very cheap . Day I picked it up , it would not start for owner so we re did deal and on the trailer it went . Got more off  price so I wasn't too concerned - but I do have to get it to start now .

So it doesn't yet have a new ignition . The owner just contacted the right wires - all just hanging down free , and she ran . I haven't yet bought the new agnition so I still just have the wire contact method .

It turns over , all sounds very good , strong , happy , just won't fire . immobiliser is stopping all fire ups.

I found the 97 kia diagram here , by the way this place is unreal . Is it loaded with info or what , fantastic but I'm afraid both disarm wires didn't do anything , still won't fire and dash ledlight is still flashing . I tried the 98 and the 97 - different .

Would anyone have any suggestions as I am not in an area where I can get an auto elec out to atleast not without blowing 5 or 600 bucks .

I know she's tricky not having the ignition but hey , the theives didn't have any problem and it would be nice to double check it running before I spend any more money on it.

Cheers

Monkey do.

Thanks for reply .

I should have added a few other details also. I can get all the electrics working , CD , blinkers , dash lights, fan, windows , wipers , mainly seems to be the motor shut down.

Yeah mine's has  immobiliser unfortunately. Spose what I really need is a theif hey .There is a 97 diagram here and 98 - this one is late 97 and I found the door panel disarm wire that is on the 98 diagram , it might have both so I'll look for the 97 wire today .

As far as I can tell all those fuses are good , none broken . Maybe a relay or something but how to check them i'm not sure , Hvae read up but all seem ok .All the fuses and relays seem same and in same spots as any I've looked at here .

Mine has the key fob , with a hole stabbed through the middle of it so that's not much help .What's left of key part of ignition is jambed up , looks like they took a screwdriver to it .

But that was all same when I viewed car , we actually took it out for drive and all went very nice .He says it just stopped firing and immobiliser's locked it up .

Cheers
