Question :
the mitsubishi magna tp sedan glx would not start as it had a rear end collision. the emergency lights were on however making me think it possibky had a immobiliser fitted or it had the etacs (which is only for the elite model, i believe)?
anyway i got the ignition switch lock assembly with the 6 pin plug(black in color) from the mitsubishi magna tp executive and swapped it over with the one in the mitsubishi magna tp sedan glx and it then started ok?
i noticed that the mitsubishi magna tp sedan glx had some extra wiring around where that 6 pin plug plugs into from the ignition switch(compared to the wiring in the same spot/area on the mitsubishi magna tp executive)
it seems to me (just maybe a guess)that the mitsubishi magna tp sedan glx might of had an immobiliser fitted later on in its life after it left the factory floor.
If any of my 3 mitsubishi magna tp series cars have an immobiliser where would i look to find it and what does it look like?
thanks
john

Little box stashed under the dash somewhere, wires from it go to the back of the ignition barrel. Look for some very unprofessional non factory wiring. Rip it right out.
