Tachometer Idle Speed Programming - Subaru 2007 B-9 Tribeca Technicians Reference Booklet

2007 New Model Update
This system has been designed to work with the Immobilizer system by registering the
RES software card and immobilizer interface as one ignition key. These two parts must be
replaced if the BIU is replaced, along with the ignition keys currently programmed to the
immobilizer system.
A service mode is available that will deactivate the RES.
