Kangoo 2002 Immobilizer Unlock Issue – Key Washed, Indicator Blinks, Car Won't Start

Hello forum users.
On Saturday I thoroughly washed the only kangoo key with pants. After removing from the washing machine, the key was immediately dismantled and dried, the next day, i.e. on Sunday, I folded it and wanted to check. The central locking key opened normally, which pleased me, but not for long, because after turning the key the immobilizer indicator blinks quickly and the car does not start. I advised various forums where the topic was raised but to no avail because no combination worked on the immobilizer. I did this: press the button to close the door in the car until the indicator light does not start lighting and then the remote control button. Press the central button and simmer the remote control button and the other ones that I read. From the forums, he concludes that the infrared reader is on the headliner by the cabin hood. It is possible that the key has died. Maybe someone knows how to program an immobilizer? In the attachment, a photo of the key, there is also a card with the number EFWNAC9Y in the key, maybe it matters. I only have this one key.

Hello, washing powder dissolved in water gives an alkaline reaction so you could release the key electronics. Measure the coil often when opening these keys the coil is damaged the immo auto will not start but the central locking may work. You can only have two outputs, a clean key that needs to be added to the immo, or you can turn off the immobilizer with fully specialized equipment and for a good electronics I would not count on ready programming instructions or turn off the immo, because such knowledge becomes dangerous in the wrong hands.

I disassembled the immobilizer switch so that I would not go to the keyboards 10x and I would be appointed tomorrow.

I think about the topic. Good luck
