As it is necessary to record the code of the hand held transmit-
ter, customer's code will be erased. When the inspection com-
pletes, please register the customer's again.
(a) Check that the code of hand held transmitter for inspec-
tion can be recorded.
(See page
If the code can not be registered, replace garage door opener.

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE
1. KEY REGISTRATION IN AUTOMATIC REGISTRATION MODE
(a) Registration of a new transponder key.
HINT:
This must be done when you install a new ECM.
The new ECM is in the automatic key code registration mode. The already fixed number of key codes
for this ECM can be registered.
On this type of vehicle, up to 3 key codes can be registered.
In the automatic registration mode, the key registered last becomes the sub±key.

When a key is not inserted in the key cylinder in the automatic registration mode, the security indicator
always lights on.
When the immobiliser system operates normally and the key is pulled out, the security indicator blinks.
When key code registration could not be performed in the automatic registration mode, code 2±1 is
output from the security indicator and when inserting the already registered key, code 2±2 is output.
(b) Automatic registration mode completion
If completing the mode forcibly when more than 1 key code have been registered in the automatic reg-
istration mode, perform the following procedures.
After 1 more key code have been registered with master key, perform step (1) or (2) without pulling
the key out or inserting the already registered key.
