8. If a new ignition key is registered further, repeat steps 1 to 7 above.
A maximum of eight ignition keys can be registered to one vehicle (If you
attempt to register the ninth key, the immobilizer-ECU rejects the key). If any
of the following conditions are satisfied, the additional key registration mode
will terminate:
The immobilizer indicator starts blinking for more than 30 seconds. After the ignition key has been turned to the "LOCK" (OFF), the engine
control relay is turned off. The scan tool has started communicating with vehicle systems.
9. After the registration mode has terminated, the additionally registered key(s)
should allow you to start the engine.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Antenna and receiver are incorporated in the ETACS-ECU. ID code can be registered by using scan tool MB991958 (MUT-III sub
assembly). Transmitter is a key holder type, which incorporates lock button, unlock button
and panic button. When the transmitter unlock button is pressed once, the driver's door will be
unlocked. If the button is pressed twice, all the doors and the liftgate will be
unlocked. The adjustment function also allows you to open all the doors and
liftgate by pressing the unlock button only once. For further details on using
the multi-center display (middle grade type) to adjust the unlock operation, see
ON
-VEHICLE SERVICE
.
When the transmitter is operated, the answerback function will work as
follows:

If none of the doors or liftgate is opened or the ignition key is not inserted in
the ignition switch within 30 seconds after the doors and liftgate are unlocked
using the transmitter, the ETACS-ECU will relock the doors and liftgate
automatically. This is called "Timer lock function." This timer lock function
prevents accidental unlocking of doors and the liftgate. The adjustment
function allows you to change the timer lock period from 30 seconds (default
setting) to 60, 120 or 180 seconds. For further details on using the multi-center
display (middle grade type) to adjust the timer lock period, see ON
-VEHICLE
SERVICE

KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS The keyless entry system is controlled by the Simplified Wiring System (SWS).
Refer to SYMPTOM CHART
.
SPECIAL TOOL
a. Horn sounds
b. Horn sounds if doors
are already locked
(default)
c. Horn does not sound
NOTE: The timer lock period begins when the doors and liftgate
are unlocked, and ends when the doors and liftgate is
relocked automatically.

HOW TO REGISTER SECRET CODE Required Special Tools:
MB991958: MUT-III Sub Assembly MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.) MB991910: MUT-III Main harness A
Each individual secret code is registered inside the transmitter, and so it is
necessary to resister these codes with the EEPROM inside the receiver in the
following cases. When the transmitter or ETACS-ECU is replaced If more transmitters are to be used If it appears that a problem is occurring because of faulty registration of a code.
A maximum of four different codes can be stored in the EEPROM memory (four
different transmitters can be used). When the code for the first transmitter is
registered, the previously registered codes for all transmitters are cleared.
Therefore, if you are using four transmitters or are adding more transmitters, the
codes for all transmitters must be registered at the same time.
WHEN SPECIAL TOOL MB991824 (V.C.I.) IS USED 1. Check that the doors lock normally when the key is used.
2. Insert the ignition key. NOTE: *: The horn will sound if "LOCK" button is pressed with the
doors and liftgate locked.
**: The horn will sound if the doors and liftgate are locked
with the keyless entry system.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to special tool MB991824
(V.C.I.), always turn the ignition switch to
"LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or
disconnecting special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.).

5. Press the transmitter button, and then press it two times within 10 seconds of
the first press. This will register the code.
6. When the encrypted code has been registered, the ETACS-ECU locks and
unlocks the doors automatically once.
7. If you are using two or more transmitters or have added a second transmitter,
the same registration procedure should be carried out within one minute after
completing step 4 .
8. Check whether the transmitter encrypted code has been registered in the
ETACS-ECU.
Connect special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.) to the data link connector. If the
transmitter lock or unlock button is pressed, special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.)
should sound once.
9. Registration mode will be canceled under the following conditions:
When the secret code for four transmitters has been registered; When one minute has passed after registration mode started; When special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.) is disconnected; When the key is removed from the key cylinder;
10. After the registration is completed, remove the ignition key and close all the
doors, and then check that the ke
yless entr
y system o
perates normall
y.
NOTE: If special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.) does not sound, the
transmitter encrypted code has not been registered yet.
Register the encrypted code again.
NOTE: If the code registration is difficult, refer to SWS
DIAGNOSIS
