Default S40 Alarm/Immobilizer

Hello all.
I have a '97 S40 1.8. The immobilizer light stays on, and has done for about 12 months. I recently had a service (non-dealer) who read the codes but could not reset them, nor cure the problem. The 3 fenix 5.1 codes are as follows;

221 - No transponder comm.
212 - Antanna ring error
223 - transponder comm. error

Mostly, the car starts no problem, but 1 in about a 1000 turns, the starter fails to turn. The alarm, however, hasn't worked since this fault started.

Does anybody have any ideas as to how the problem can be cured.

thanks in advance,
