JDM SVX does not have an immobilizer. Under standard conditions, the doors are locked when the car starts moving and reaches a certain speed. Later model SVXs have a button to cancel this and the door lock ECU has been modified. Many users don't like automatic door locks, so the previous owner may have changed the door lock ECU.
Searching by VIN, the part number for your car's key lock ECU is 57430PA250 (or PA251). For late model is 88035PA100 (or PA102). FYI

Thanks Noriyasu. My next move is to try and locate a door lock ecu, then, as mine is missing, if it belongs above the glove box.
