DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is ON, Immobilizer Control Module requests ECM / PCM and ECM / PCM requests Immobi-
lizer Control Module to transmit ECM/Immobilizer Control Module code. If ECM/Immobilizer Control Module code
is not transmitted from ECM / PCM or Immobilizer Control Module, Immobilizer Control Module sets DTC23 and

INSPECTION OF ECM / PCM, IMMOBILIZER
CONTROL MODULE AND ITS CIRCUIT
ECM / PCM, Immobilizer Control Module and its circuit can be
checked at ECM / PCM wiring couplers and Immobilizer Control
Module wiring coupler by measuring voltage and resistance. De-
scribed here is only inspection of Immobilizer Control Module. For
inspection of ECM / PCM, refer to ªSECTION 6E1 or 6E2º.
CAUTION:
Immobilizer Control Module cannot be checked by itself. It
is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to
Immobilizer Control Module with coupler disconnected
from it.
Voltage Check
1) Remove Immobilizer Control Module from body with ignition
switch OFF, referring to p. 8G-24.
2) Connect Immobilizer Control Module coupler to Immobilizer
Control Module.
3) Check voltage at each terminal of coupler connected.
NOTE:
As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery voltage,
confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch is ON.

CAUTION:
Never touch terminals of Immobilizer Control Module it-

2) Check resistance between each terminal of coupler discon-
nected.
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect ohmmeter probe from wire harness

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
PRECAUTIONS IN HANDLING IMMOBILIZER
CONTROL SYSTEM
Do not turn ON ignition switch with ignition key for immobilizer
control system put together with another one or placed quite close
to another one. Or the system may detect abnormal condition and
prevent engine from starting.
Do not turn ON ignition switch by using ignition key with any type
of metal wound around its grip or in contact with it. Or the system
may detect abnormal condition and prevent engine from starting.
Do not leave ignition key where high temperature is anticipated.
High temperature will cause transponder in ignition key to be ab-
normal or damaged.
Do not turn ON ignition switch with a radio antenna placed near
coil antenna or its harness to Immobilizer Control Module. Or the
system may detect abnormal condition and prevent engine from
starting.
