IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION

id091400105100

• When a key is inserted into the key cylinder, the key ID number of the key and the key ID number registered in the PCM are compared. If the comparison is successful, permission is given to start the engine.
• Keys contain a unique ID number that is previously registered in the PCM. Due to this, if immobilizer system component parts are replaced (such as key addition/clearing and PCM replacement), it is necessary to reset the system.

Immobilizer System Setting

• The immobilizer system can be set so that only the WDS or equivalent must be used to perform system procedures. When using the WDS or equivalent, first security access must be requested. Obtain security access permission according the WDS or equivalent screen and then perform system procedures.
