2002 Ferrari 360 spyder immobilizer constant flashing

hi,
Just a bit of help or advice.
i purchase a Ferrari 360 Spyder, my first.
The immobilizer is constantly flashing, regardless if you press the button or not, it just continues to flash quick, and also when driving.
It only takes the key to start, the FOB works it locks the vehicle but finds it difficult to lock the vehicle.
(Ferrari had a look, and attempted to fix the issue, but due to time constraints on my part, the vehicle is currently in transit to me from Interstate, and it was recommended to be viewed by a Ferrari mechanic.)

I'm guessing someone very smart flashed the Immobilizer thus making it not required to start the vehicle.

So my question is,
Do I have someone flash the immobilizer back to factory default if this can be done, or do i just purchase a new immobilizer from http://www.immofixer.com and get new fobs and start again? Its not much of a concern, the vehicle is perfect, zero error codes came up on the SD3
The previous owner had a 'Viper Alarm' but had it disconnected as it was causing issues.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
