   Maybe the previous owner bypassed it and took it out?
   
   Does your immobiliser light come on with the electrics?

    i just did this ten mins ago
    have a small flat head screwdriver to hand turn on car then disconnect the black box with the engine running and throw black box as far away as possible then turn off engine and restart job done
    
    do not under any circumstances disconnect black box without engine running you will lock the ecu... engine must be ON
