DESCRIPTION:
Immobilizer Control Module energizes the coil antenna when the ignition switch is ON and reads Transponder code
from the ignition key. When Immobilizer Control Module cannot read Transponder code from the ignition key even
when the coil antenna is energized, this DTC is set.

1Does ignition key being used have built-in trans-
ponder? (See Fig. 1)Go to Step 2.Replace ignition key with built-in trans-
ponder and follow ªDIAGNOSTIC

21) Disconnect coil antenna coupler with ignition
switch turned OFF.
2) Is there continuity between coil antenna cou-
pler terminals A and B?
(See Fig. 2)Go to Step 3.Coil antenna open.
3Measure resistance between terminals of coil an-
tenna coupler and body ground. (See Fig. 3)
Is it (infinity) ?Go to Step 4.Coil antenna shorted to ground.
41) With coil antenna coupler disconnected, dis-
connect Immobilizer Control Module coupler.
2) Measure resistance between coil antenna ter-
minals of Immobilizer Control Module coupler.
(See Fig. 4)
Is it (infinity) ?Go to Step 5.ª(k)º wire shorted to ª(l)ºwire.
5Measure resistance between terminal A1 of Im-
mobilizer Control Module coupler and body
ground.
(See Fig. 5)
Is it (infinity) ?Go to Step 6.ª(k)º wire shorted to ground.
6Measure resistance between terminal A2 of Im-
mobilizer Control Module coupler and body
ground. (See Fig. 6)
Is it (infinity) ?Go to Step 7.ª(I)º wire shorted to ground.
71) Connect coil antenna coupler.
2) Is there continuity between Immobilizer Con-
trol Module coupler terminals A1 and A2?
(See Fig. 7)Go to Step 8.ª(k)º or ª(I)º wire open.

INSPECTION OF ECM / PCM, IMMOBILIZER
CONTROL MODULE AND ITS CIRCUIT
ECM / PCM, Immobilizer Control Module and its circuit can be
checked at ECM / PCM wiring couplers and Immobilizer Control
Module wiring coupler by measuring voltage and resistance. De-
scribed here is only inspection of Immobilizer Control Module. For
inspection of ECM / PCM, refer to ªSECTION 6E1 or 6E2º.
CAUTION:
Immobilizer Control Module cannot be checked by itself. It
is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to
Immobilizer Control Module with coupler disconnected
from it.
Voltage Check
1) Remove Immobilizer Control Module from body with ignition
switch OFF, referring to p. 8G-24.
2) Connect Immobilizer Control Module coupler to Immobilizer
Control Module.
3) Check voltage at each terminal of coupler connected.
NOTE:
As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery voltage,
confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch is ON.

NOTE:
When measuring voltage at A1 and A2 terminals with ignition switch turned ON, be sure to turn ignition
switch ON before connecting positive probe of voltmeter to A1 or A2 terminal. If it is not turned ON first,
DTC13 (Diagnostic Trouble Code 13) may be indicated.

Resistance Check
1) Disconnect Immobilizer Control Module couplers from Immobi-
lizer Control Module with ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Never touch terminals of Immobilizer Control Module it-
self or connect voltmeter or ohmmeter.
2) Check resistance between each terminal of coupler discon-
nected.
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect ohmmeter probe from wire harness
side of coupler.
Be sure to turn OFF ignition switch for this check.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
PRECAUTIONS IN HANDLING IMMOBILIZER
CONTROL SYSTEM
Do not turn ON ignition switch with ignition key for immobilizer
control system put together with another one or placed quite close
to another one. Or the system may detect abnormal condition and
prevent engine from starting.
Do not turn ON ignition switch by using ignition key with any type
of metal wound around its grip or in contact with it. Or the system
may detect abnormal condition and prevent engine from starting.
Do not leave ignition key where high temperature is anticipated.
High temperature will cause transponder in ignition key to be ab-
normal or damaged.
Do not turn ON ignition switch with a radio antenna placed near
coil antenna or its harness to Immobilizer Control Module. Or the
system may detect abnormal condition and prevent engine from
starting.
