Immobilizer Control System: 10C-2
• Do not leave ignition key in a place where
temperature is high. High temperature may cause
damage to the transponder built in the ignition key.
• Do not turn ignition switch to ON position by bringing
radio antenna close to coil antenna. Or, the
immobilizer control system may detect some
abnormal condition and prevent the engine from
starting.
General Description
Immobilizer Control System Introduction
S7RS0BA301001
The immobilizer control system is an anti-theft device that immobilizes the vehicle. It stops the engine from working
and prevents the vehicle from being stolen. It mainly consists of the following components.
• Engine Control Module (ECM)
• Immobilizer control module (ICM) with the built-in coil antenna
• Ignition key with the built-in transponder
A code called the transponder code is memorized in the transponder. And, the code is registered with ECM. Basically,
when the ignition switch is turned ON, ECM reads the code by the coil antenna. Then, if the code in transponder in the
ignition key does not match with the one registered with ECM, ECM stops the operation of the fuel injection so as not
to start up the engine and turns the immobilizer indicator lamp ON and OFF using CAN communication lines. In the
case of the vehicle equipped with the keyless start system, in addition to the above operation, ECM makes the
immobilizer indicator lamp ON and OFF when it detects a trouble related to ID code verification of the keyless start
system.
