HOW TO REGISTER SECRET CODEM1428001000292
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.

6. Once the program is saved, it will operate once
with the all doors and tailgate lock and unlock
operations. 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 registering the code for the first transmitter.
8. Registration mode will be cancelled under the
following conditions:
•When the secret code for four transmitters has
been registered;
•When one minute has passed after registration
mode started;
•When the diagnosis connector is disconnected
from earth;
•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
