It won’t start. I tried changing the crank position sensor and exchanging the ignition system from a Scenic 1,6 8v but it doesn’t start. Could it be the immobilizer? Is it possible to reset this without a computer?
Any other ideas are welcome

we have no information on these cars. But your immobilizer or security system could be the culprit. if you have a handbook that came with yoru car it shold tell you how to reset the system. On gm cars you turn the key on for 10 minutes or less if the security light goes out then turn it off then on then try to start the car. Also you shold have the engine scanned for codes and your fuelpressure checked. it could be either of these as well
