Citroen Synergie immobiliser problem

Someone recently tried to steal my 1997 Citroen Synergie. They pulled all the wires out of the key pad and now the car is immobilised, with no key pad to unlock. What should I do?

Have a look under the central console. There might be a white box with a multipin connector plugged into it. Unplugging that multipin connector disables the immobiliser. You get a permanent red light on the dash, but the car goes.
