HOW TO REGISTER SECRET CODEBGBHCCCB
Required Special Tools:
: 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 previ-
ously registered codes for all transmitters are cleared. There-
fore, 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.

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.).
3. Connect special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.) to the data link
connector.
4. Press the hazard warning light switch six times within 10
seconds.
NOTE: When the hazard warning light switch has been
pressed six times, the ETACS-ECU locks and unlocks the
doors automatically once. The ETACS-ECU is ready to reg-
ister an encrypted code.
NOTE: The hazard warning light switch is a toggle switch.
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 next transmitter should be registered
within one minute after registering the code for the previous
transmitter. The registration procedure is common for all the
transmitter.
8. Registration mode will be canceled under the following
conditions:
When the secret code for four transmitters has been regis-
tered;
When passing one minute after finishing the registration of
all transmitters;
When special tool MB991824 (V.C.I.) is disconnected;
When the key is removed from the key cylinder;
9. After the registration is completed, remove the ignition key
and close all the doors, and then check that the keyless
entry system operates normally.
