Anti-Theft system.
 

Today was my first encounter with the anti theft thingy where it cuts off fuel supply to the engine if it stalls or thinks its been tampered with, I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it until i read the book, i had to wait ten mins before i could try it again. it was all because i didn't hold the key in the start position until the engine was on. has any body had this problem?

So exactly what did you do to cause this anomaly?

I slightly turned the key into the start position but then let go before the engine started so it sounded kind of like an engine stall,if that makes any sense. its fine now just have to keep the key forward until the engine starts all the way so the ani-theft system doesn't think i'm trying to steal it i guess [sm=smiley29.gif]

So you hold key in start position just long enough to crank engine but not start it.
I thought H3 had this option to prevent it. It would crank motor till it start (for couple seconds)
