When I bought my Chimaera 400 (1996) I got a small key of 2,5 cm length. The previous owner did not exactly know it's function. "Has to do with alarm/immobilizer."
Does someone have any idea? Picture of the key can be sent by e-mail.
Thank You for answering

Sounds like it is the key to turn the alarm sounder unit on and off - look in the engine bay and you should see the siren on your right hand side with the key unit on the top. If the key is round as opposed to a regular flat key I'd say that it's definately for that.
