P1260 CODE on 2007 MX-5

[Atticaz]

I am pretty sure a trip to the stealership is the only way to go. But still. Dealing with this shit right now. Wife drove her car yesterday and parked it in the garage. The car was pulled into the garage and sat there over night. The only thing that has happened between then a now is I replaced a power window switch. I found out the window switch was missing one of the connectors, so I reinstalled the original. After that, car would not start. I took the battery, which is new to be tested. It's fine. Used my DashCommand app to reveal the P1260 code. "Theft Detected. Vehicle Immobilized."

Anyone had this happen and what did you do to fix it?

Ended up getting the car towed to the dealership. Ended up being a blown IC fuse. I did a fuse check. Guess I missed one somehow. The dealership waived the $328 diagnostic tests and fuse replacement. Only had to pay $95 for towing. The most expensive fuse swap ever. Lol FML

At least the problem in the end was easy.

Very true. Just wish I spent a bit more time checking the fuses. I coulda put that $95 towards more CS parts. That's all I was thinking. Lol.
