Crosswind Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Hi Guys, Has anyone safely removed the Toll reader from a Singapore car? Is it just a matter of cutting those wires off or is there something more complex than that? That thing is bound to have some kind of an anti-tamper protection system so I wonder if something drastic will happen like the engine getting immobilized if it is removed. If anyone has removed it without a problem. Pls let me know. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchman Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) No, you can just cut the wire and remove the IU (InVehicle Unit). It's the driver's responsibility to have a proper functioning IU. If a vehicle passes under a ERP Gantry with a faulty IU, the authorities wont stop you or anything. They'll simply send you a letter asking you to go pay the fine and get your IU sorted out. Edited September 28, 2012 by Watchman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komisiripala Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Our sonata had the same unit. The seller asked not to remove it as it will immobilise the car. The kudda down the road didn't get the memo. It's been gone for over 6 years now. No issues. Bugger tried to sell it back to my mom also! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers 'Crosswind', This card reader can be removed without any adverse effect on to the windshield glass inner glass by only moving 0nly to side ways, No one should try to pull same down as it is pasted by 3M Very High Bond tape. It will come out only to side way moment. can be removed within 2 minits. I have remmoved hundreds of them without braking th W/S glass. It has nothing to do to immobilize your vehicle. JUST CUT THE TWO WIRES ONE BY ONE BECAUSE THEY HAVE POWER. Sylvi Wijesinghe. Edited September 28, 2012 by Sylvi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
