According to the European Commission's Directorate-General for Migration, and Home Affairs data, on vehicle theft across European Union (EU) member states, 697,000 cars were stolen in the EU in 2019 alone...
In the United States, the FBI's in their Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, stated that approximately 873,080 vehicles were stolen in the United States in 2020 alone...
This number has ever continued to rise and as 2023 over 1 million cars were stolen in the US alone.
The sad part is that, the higher percentage of these cars had this security device called immobilizer, installed in them.
An immobilizer is an electronic security device installed in a vehicle that prevents the engine from starting unless the correct key or key fob is present.
To achieve this feat, the Immobilizer control module, ICM, and the Engine Control Unit (ECU) work together in a sequential interaction to ensure vehicle security and operation.
in this video you will see how this loss in communication between the ECM and the ICM triggers the U0167 error code.
paying attention to this U0167 error code will save your car from been stollen.
so watch this video to learn the causes, symptoms and solution to the U0167 error code. #allcars #automobile #cartheft #carsecurity #immobilizer
