4. Transponder ECU Reset
This function allows the registration of a new Master Key even if all original Master
Keys are lost. Once the Immobilizer system is reset, all previous registered keys will
be erased. Use a new transponder Master Key to complete Transponder ECU Reset.
Immobilizer Reset
The Immobilizer Reset function is a 4-step process:
A. Using the Diagnostic Tester, retrieve a ªSeed Numberº through the OBD/MOBD
Immobilizer function.
A ªSeed Numberº is a unique number provided by the Diagnostic Tester and
validated at TMS in order to return a Passcode.
B. Using the TIS (Technical Information System) workstation, select Immobilizer
Reset, and complete the request form to retrieve a ªPasscode Number.º
A ªPasscode Numberº is a unique number required by the Diagnostic Tester
to reset the ECU allowing it to accept a new Master Key.
C. Enter the ªPasscode Numberº received from TIS into the Diagnostic Tester,
register any additional customer keys, and close auto registration mode.
D. Confirm successful Immobilizer reset and new Master Key registration.Operation
