7) Immobilizer Control
(1) Overview
The Immobilizer System provides an additional theft deterrent to the vehicle in which it is installed
and prevents it from being started by unauthorized persons. The transponder integrated in the key
and the engine control unit have the same code. When the ignition key with the integrated
transponder is turned to the ON position, the ECU (Engine Control Unit) checks the crypto code of
the key and, if correct, allows the vehicle to start the engine.
For details, refer to Chapter "BCM".
