Immobilizer System
Description
The vehicle is equipped with an immobilizer system that will disable the vehicle unless the proper ignition key is used.
This system consists of a transponder located in the ignition key, a receiver, a control unit, an indicator light, and the ECM.
The vehicle has two kinds of keys.
The master key is for:
— ignition switch.
— door locks.
— trunk lock.
— glove box lock.
The valet key is for:
— ignition switch.
— door locks.
The learning key is for rewriting the immobilizer sys-
tem.
NOTE: This key cannot start the engine; do not use it
except for rewriting the system. If someone tries to
start the engine with the learning key, all master and
valet keys must be relearned.
When the key is inserted in the ignition and turned to the (II) position, the immobilizer control unit sends power to the
transponder through the receiver.
The transponder then sends a coded signal back through the receiver to the control unit.
The control unit in turn signals the ECM, as well as the starter cut relay.
