2000 SUZUKI SWIFT check engine

TYPE 1 TYPE 2
BODY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 8-3
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The keyless entry system uses radio wave. When the button on the transmitter is pressed, a signal is transmitted
in the form of radio wave to the receiver. Then the signal causes the door lock controller to lock and unlock the door.
The door locks can not operated with the transmitter when either of the following conditions applies.

For 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from ON to OFF position.

The ignition switch is at ON or START position.

Any door is open.

NOTE:

The operation distance of this system varies depending on the position where the transmitter is oper-
ated, at the front side, the rear side or the lateral side. The distance can be affected by radio noises from
a TV station, a power plant, a broadcasting station and so forth.

INSPECTION
1) Warm up ECT sensor (1) observing resistance between sensor
terminal (2) and sensor unit (1). Resistance should be de-
creased with increase of its temperature.
2) Check resistance between sensor terminal (2) and sensor unit
(1). If check result is not as specified below, replace sensor.

SECTION 8G
IMMOBILIZER CONTROL SYSTEM
WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “Gener-
al Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precau-
tions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:

Whether the immobilizer indicator lamp is used in the particular vehicle or not depends on specifica-
tions. If there is a monitor coupler in the engine room near the left strut assembly, the vehicle is not
equipped with immobilizer indicator lamp and if there isn’t, it is equipped with immobilizer indicator
lamp.

For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the section 8G of the Service Manual men-
tioned in FOREWORD of this manual.

8G-2 IMMOBILIZER CONTROL SYSTEM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The immobilizer control system designed to prevent vehicle burglar consists of following components.

Engine Control Module (ECM)

Immobilizer Control Module

Ignition key (with built-in transponder)

Coil antenna
Operation of this system is as follows.
(1) Each ignition key has its own code (Transponder code) stored in memory. When the ignition switch is turned
ON, Immobilizer Control Module tries to read the Transponder code through the coil antenna installed to the
steering lock assembly.
(2) Immobilizer Control Module compares the Transponder code read in (1) and that registered in Immobilizer Con-
trol Module and checks if they match.
(3) When it is confirmed that two Transponder codes match each other as described above, Immobilizer Control
Module and ECM check if ECM/Immobilizer Control Module codes registered in them respectively match.
(4) Only when it is confirmed that ECM/Immobilizer Control Module codes match, the engine starts running. If
Transponder codes in Step (2) or ECM/Immobilizer Control Module codes in Step (3) do not match, ECM will
stop operation of the injector and the ignitor (i.e., ignition of spark plug).

With the ignition switch turned ON (but the engine at stop) regard-
less of the condition of the engine and emission control system,
ECM indicates whether a trouble has occurred in the immobilizer
control system or not by causing the immobilizer indicator lamp to
flash or turn ON.
Immobilizer indicator lamp is ON:
No trouble exists in the immobilizer control system.
Immobilizer indicator lamp is flashing:
ECM or Immobilizer Control Module has detected some trouble in
the immobilizer control system.
NOTE:
As soon as the ignition switch is turned ON, ECM and Immobi-
lizer Control Module diagnose if a trouble has occurred in the
immobilizer control system. While the diagnosis is being
made, the Immobilizer indicator lamp stays ON and if the diag-
nosis result is “abnormal”, it immediately changes to flashing
but if the result is “normal”, it remains ON. Diagnosis takes
about 3 seconds at maximum.
When ECM and Immobilizer Control Module detects a trouble, it
stores DTC corresponding to the exact trouble area in ECM and Im-
mobilizer Control Module memory.
DTCs stored in memory of each controller (Immobilizer Control
Module and ECM) can be read by using the procedure described
in “DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK (IMMOBILIZER CON-
TROL MODULE)” and “DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
(ECM)” in this section.
