How can I trip the immobilizer?
Not that I want to But is there anything I need to watch out for while working on the car that might cause me to trip it by accident?

Not really. The only way it will be active is if the alarm was set off or if you use a key that is not programmed to your car. The ecu won't recognize the signature and the engine will not start.

No problem. I can't think of any other ways off the top of my head.
