IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
REPLACING A KEY HEAD
The coded chip in the key head or the remote
control (depending on equipment) is faulty :
- order a replacement key head using the num-
ber in the faulty key head (eight alphanumeric
characters beginning with the letter E or A). If
the key head is from a remote control type key,
carry out a resynchronisation operation.
IMPORTANT: The resynchronisation procedure
differs depending on if the decoder unit has
been replaced or not (see specific or simple re-
synchronisation procedure in section 88).
- if the customer requires the fault to be repaired
immediately (2nd key unavailable) a complete
kit may be fitted to the vehicle (decoder unit
plus two key heads) (see replacing a complete
kit).
The key has been lost:
- order a replacement key head using the num-
ber in the key head of the 2nd key (eight alpha-
numeric characters beginning with the letter E
or A) or on the label (normally attached to the
keys when the vehicle is delivered).
In this case, remember to order the metal
number insert for the new key head. If the key
head is from a remote control type key, carry
out a resynchronisation operation.
IMPORTANT: The resynchronisation procedure
differs depending on if the decoder unit has
been replaced or not (see specific or simple re-
synchronisation procedure in section 88).
IMPORTANT: Do not touch the key head chip
when taking note of the number in the key head.
Any key which has been touched must be repla-
ced.
NOTE: if the key head number cannot be located
(both keys lost together with the label), the
complete kit must be replaced (decoder unit, plus
2 transponder keys, plus injection computer or co-
ded solenoid valve electronic unit).
82
REPLACING THE DECODER UNIT ALONE
A new decoder unit is not coded. Once fitted to
the vehicle, the codes of both keys must be pro-
grammed so that it is operational (see program-
ming procedure).
NOTE : if the decoder unit alone is replaced, no
operation is carried out on the injection computer
or coded solenoid valve. It retains the same en-
gine immobiliser code.
IMPORTANT: when a decoder unit has been pro-
grammed with the key code, the code cannot be
erased and no other code may be memorised in its
place.
SPECIAL NOTES
Diesel vehicles
On these vehicles, the decoder unit is identical to
the decoder unit of a petrol immobiliser system.
When replacing it the new "diesel" part must be
configured by means of the XR25 test kit.
This configuration will enable the decoder unit to
check that the coded solenoid valve is operating
correctly (indicated by the immobiliser warning
light) (see diesel configuration).
Vehicles fitted with a remote control
After replacing the decoder unit carry out a resyn-
chronisation operation (see simple resynchronisa-
tion procedure, section 88).

5.Check the immobiliser system operates cor-
rectly with both keys.
Ignition off, the red immobiliser warning light
should flash 10 seconds after switching the
ignition off (slow flashing). Bargraph
10 LH
should be illuminated. The vehicle should not
start when other keys are used.
NOTE : to simulate prevention from starting,
before switching the ignition on, wait for the
red warning light to flash slowly.
Enter on
the XR25, ignition still off (bargraph
9 LH illu-
minates).
Switch the ignition on, the red immobiliser
warning light should flash more quickly and
the vehicle should be impossible to start.
6.The procedure is complete. After switching
the ignition off and on again (for more than 2
seconds), check that the vehicle can be started
with both keys.
Diesel configuration
On diesel vehicles the decoder unit must be confi-
gured in "diesel" using the XR25.
1.Ignition off, XR25 connected (ISO selector on
S8).
Enter code (fiche n° 56),
bargraph
1 RH must be illuminated.
2.Enter programming mode
Bargraph
3 RH must illuminate.
The configuration is complete.
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
The procedure is carried out using one key.
The XR25 must be used for this procedure to lock
the key programming.
1.Ignition off, connect the XR25 to the vehicle
and set the selector to S8.
Enter code (fiche n° 56),
bargraphs 19 RH and 19 LH must be illumina-
ted (programming not carried out). If both of
these bargraphs are not illuminated, replace
the decoder unit (this unit has already been
used).
2.With one of the keys switch the ignition on
for approximately 2 seconds (without starting
the engine). Bargraph 18
LH illuminates and
bargraph
19 LH extinguishes.
The red immobiliser warning light flashes.
3.Switch the ignition off and start command
G60* to lock the programming. The red immo-
biliser warning light should flash (slow flas-
hing). Bargraphs 19 RH and 18 LH should be
extinguished.
4.Switch the ignition on for a few seconds (wi-
thout starting the engine) to send the code to
the injection computer or the coded solenoid
valve.

Enter code
Bargraphs
19 RH and 19 LH must be illumina-
ted (programming not carried out).
6. With one of the keys switch the ignition on
for approximately 2 seconds (without star-
ting the engine). Bargraph 18
LH illuminates
and bargraph
19 LH extinguishes.
The red immobiliser warning light flashes rapi-
dly.
7.Switch the ignition off and start command
G60* to lock the programming.
- the red immobiliser warning light should
flash (slow flashing)
- bargraphs 19 RH and 18 LH should be ex-
tinguished.
8.Switch the ignition on for a few seconds,
check that the red immobiliser warning light
is illuminated permanently (diesel) or that
the injection warning light is flashing (pe-
trol).
9.Switch the ignition on for more than 10
consecutive seconds.
10.Switch the ignition off and wait for the red
immobiliser warning light to flash slowly.
Enter command
with the ignition still off (bargraph
9 LH illu-
minates).
Switch the ignition on, the red immobiliser
warning light flashes more rapidly.
Follow the procedure for entering the securi-
ty code (see procedure for entering the secu-
rity code), using the code number correspon-
ding to the old kit. This erases the old code
memorised in the injection computer or the
coded solenoid valve.
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
REPLACING A KIT
(decoder unit plus two key heads)
If a kit is replaced it will be necessary to:
- programme the codes of the 2 new keys in the
new decoder unit (supplied uncoded).
- erase the old code in the injection computer or
coded solenoid valve using the security proce-
dure (the code number for the old kit should be
requested from the local assistance network,
example Delta Assistance for France, NVSR for
the UK by fax only)
IMPORTANT : to erase the old code (memorised in
the injection computer or coded solenoid valve
electronic unit), the procedure described below
must be followed in the correct order.
The code in the injection computer or coded sole-
noid valve cannot be erased with the security code
(using the number for the old kit) unless the deco-
der unit fitted to the vehicle has been program-
med with a different code (which is the case in the
following procedure).
NOTE : if the security code is entered when the
decoder unit has the same code as the injection
computer, or coded solenoid valve, it will not be
decoded.
1.Fit the metal inserts from the old keys into
the new key heads.
2.Note the number of one of the old keys to
obtain the security code number.
3.Remove the decoder unit with the ignition
off.
4.Fit the new decoder unit, ignition off.

11. Switch the ignition off and on again for a few
seconds without starting the engine to pro-
gramme the immobiliser code for the new kit
in the injection computer or coded solenoid
valve. The red warning light should illuminate
for 3 seconds then extinguish.
For diesel :
Ignition off, configure the decoder unit to
"diesel" (see diesel configuration using command
)
Bargraph
3 RH should illuminate; the configura-
tion is complete.
NOTE
- petrol vehicles: Using the XR25, check the in-
jection computer has been programmed with
the code. Bargraph
2 RH (immobiliser) should
be extinguished.
After entering
the display should show
The injection computer has been correctly co-
ded.
If the display shows
the injection computer is still uncoded.
- diesel vehicles: When the ignition is switched
on, check the immobiliser warning light extin-
guishes after 3 seconds.
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
NOTE: On petrol vehicles use the XR25 to check
that the injection computer has been correctly de-
coded (in injection fault finding).
Connect the XR25 to the diagnostic socket , posi-
tion the ISO selector and enter the injection code :
bargraph 2 RH side (immobiliser) should be illumi-
nated.
After entering
the message
should appear on the display on the XR25. The
erasure is complete.
- If the display shows
there is a fault on the coded line. In this case,
repair the fault and start the procedure again.
- If bargraph 2 RH side (immobiliser ) is extinguis-
hed,
and the display shows (*22),
this shows that the injection computer code has
not been erased. In this case check the confor-
mity of the security code and repeat the proce-
dure.

REPLACING THE INJECTION COMPUTER OR
CODED SOLENOID VALVE
The injection computer and coded solenoid valve
are supplied uncoded. The engine immobiliser
code must be programmed in when they are fit-
ted.
It is sufficient to carry out the following opera-
tions:
- switch the ignition on, without starting the en-
gine, using the vehicle’s coded key for a few
seconds,
- switch the ignition off, the immobiliser will be
activated approximately 10 seconds afterwards
(red immobiliser warning light flashes).
NOTE : starting prevention can be checked
using the XR25:
- Ignition off, wait for the warning light to
flash (slow flashing)
Enter
ignition still off (bargraph
9 LH illuminates).
- Switch the ignition on, the red immobiliser
warning light should flash more quickly and
the vehicle should be impossible to start.
NOTE : For removal - refitting information, refer
to the corresponding section (13 or 17).
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
12.Check the immobiliser system operates cor-
rectly with both keys.
Switch the ignition on and check that the red
warning light illuminates for 3 seconds then
extinguishes and that the vehicle can be star-
ted.
NOTE : starting prevention can be checked
using the XR25:
- Ignition off, wait for the warning light to
flash (slow flashing)
Enter
- Switch the ignition on and check the vehi-
cle cannot be started and that the red war-
ning light flashes (rapid flashing).
13.The procedure is complete. After turning the
ignition off and on again (for more than 2 se-
conds), check the vehicle can be started and
erase all faults present in the decoder unit.
Vehicles fitted with a remote control
After replacing the kit carry out a resynchronisa-
tion operation (see simple resynchronisation pro-
cedure, section 88).

IMPORTANT: if an uncoded injection computer or
solenoid valve is being tested from stock (test
part), the decoder unit
MUST NOT be supplied du-
ring the operation.
If the decoder unit is supplied, switching the igni-
tion on causes a coded signal to be sent from the
decoder unit to the injection computer or coded
solenoid valve (and the code is then program-
med).
To avoid memorising a code which could make
the injection computer or coded solenoid valve
electronic unit unusable after the test, the fuse
(+ before ignition feed) for the decoder unit
must be removed (fuse showing the door locking
symbol). This prevents the coded signal being sent
when the ignition is switched on (the computer or
the coded solenoid valve electronic unit remains
uncoded).
For petrol vehicles, the computer used for the test
MUST have the same Part Number as the original
computer on the vehicle (test computer may be
damaged).
Checking (on petrol vehicle only)
If the test computer is to be returned to stock, it is
possible (before it is removed) to check using the
XR25 that the computer has not been coded du-
ring the test (example : incorrect operation).
Connect the XR25 to the diagnostic socket.
Position the ISO selector and enter the injection
code: bargraph
2 RH (immobiliser) should be illu-
minated.
After entering
the message
should be displayed on the XR25.
This shows that the injection computer is not co-
ded and may be returned to stock.
If bargraph
2 RH (immobiliser) is extinguished and
after entering
the message
is displayed on the XR25, this shows that the
computer has been programmed with the immo-
biliser code (incorrect operation). In this case the
computer must be decoded before being returned
to stock.
The procedure for decoding consists of replacing
the decoder unit on the vehicle with another de-
coder unit with a different code (with its key
head) and entering the security code for the vehi-
cle (security code number should be requested
from the local assistance network, example
DELTA
Assistance for France, NVSR for the UK by fax on-
ly) using the number in the head of the key for the
vehicle.
Ignition off, fit in place of the original decoder
unit on the vehicle, a decoder unit coded with a
different number (the procedure will not work
with an uncoded decoder unit or one which has
the same code as the injection computer).

NOTE : this fault may be shown by the XR25 (in
injection fault finding).
Connect the XR25 and enter the injection code.
The fault is shown by bargraph 2 RH side.
After entering
the message
on the XR25 display indicates a fault on the coded
line.
Diesel vehicle
If a system fault is detected by the decoder unit
when the engine is running, the red immobiliser
warning light will illuminate permanently until
the ignition is switched off.
IMPORTANT: In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the decoder unit must be erased by
entering command
on the XR25 to allow the engine immobiliser sys-
tem to operate again.
NOTE: this fault may be shown by the XR25 using
fault finding for the decoder unit (fiche no. 56).
Connect the XR25.
Set the ISO selector to S8.
Enter code
The fault may be shown by bargraph
6 RH or LH
side. Switch the ignition on, the red engine immobiliser
warning light will flash (rapid flashing).
Enter the vehicle security code (number corre-
sponding to the original key number).
After entering the security code, the red warning
light will flash again.
The XR25 display should show
(in injection fault finding). This indicates that the
injection computer has been decoded.
Switch the ignition off, remove the decoded
computer and return it to stock.
Refit the computer and decoder unit to the vehi-
cle.
NOTE : When testing the injection using the XR25
on a vehicle without an immobiliser, bargraph 2
RH side will illuminate (*22 = 2 def = computer
not coded). This is normal.
SYSTEM FAULT, ENGINE RUNNING
Petrol vehicle
If a fault in the system is noted by the injection
computer when the engine is running, the injec-
tion warning light on the instrument panel will
flash during deceleration and at idle speed (en-
gine speed less than 1500 rpm).
IMPORTANT: In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the injection computer and the de-
coder unit must be erased by entering command
on the XR25 or by disconnecting the battery (ap-
proximately 30 seconds) to allow the engine im-
mobiliser system to operate again.

4.Enter mode
on the XR25 then the security code number
and validate using
-If the code is correct
is displayed.
Bargraph 10 LH extinguishes.
The engine may be started.
The vehicle is protected once more :
• approximately 10 minutes after switching
the ignition off (automatically),
• after disconnecting the battery.
-If the code is incorrect
is displayed.
Bargraph 10 LH remains illuminated.
The engine may not be started.
The red immobiliser warning light and the in-
jection warning light (depending on version)
flash.
Switch the ignition off, then repeat the proce-
dure for entering the code.
IMPORTANT: you may make 3 attempts to enter
the code. If, after the third attempt, the code is in-
valid, you must wait for approximately 15 mi-
nutes before making another attempt.
When this period has expired, switch the ignition
off and on again and 3 more attempts may be
made.
NOTE : This procedure does not decode the injec-
tion computer or coded solenoid valve (depen-
ding on the type of engine)- it only authorises the
starting of the vehicle.
REMINDER : The ignition must be switched off
and on again between attempts to enter the
code.

PROCEDURE FOR ENTERING THE SECURITY CODE
With this immobiliser system, the procedure for
entering the security code is managed by the de-
coder unit.
The code is entered using the XR25 only.
The security code can only be entered if the en-
gine immobiliser system is active. The red immobi-
liser warning light must flash when the ignition is
switched on (rapid flashing).
After determining the security code number (re-
quest from the local assistance network, example
DELTA Assistance for France, NVSR for the UK by
fax only) , carry out the following operations:
1.Ignition off, the red engine immobiliser war-
ning light should flash (slow flashing).
2.Switch the ignition on, the injection warning
light (petrol vehicle) illuminates for approxi-
mately 3 seconds then extinguishes, while the
red immobiliser warning light should flash
more quickly.
3.Connect the XR25 to the vehicle and set the
ISO selector on S8.
Enter code
Bargraph 10 LH should be illuminated (fault
finding fiche n° 56).
