Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statement
0 471.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed. The vehicle is automatically
immobilized when the vehicle is
turned off.
The system is automatically
disarmed when the ignition is turned
from off to on.
The security light, in the instrument
cluster, comes on if there is a
problem with arming or disarming
the theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more RKE
transmitters matched to an
immobilizer control unit in your
vehicle. Only a correctly matched
RKE transmitter will start the
vehicle. If the transmitter is ever
damaged, you may not be able to
start your vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light may come on briefly
when the ignition is turned on. If the
engine does not start and the
security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the vehicle will not change ignition
modes (ACC/ACCESSORY, on, off),
and the RKE transmitter appears tobe undamaged, try another
transmitter. Or, you may try placing
the transmitter in the transmitter
pocket located in the center
console. See
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation (Key
Access) 013 or
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation (Keyless Access)
0 15.
If the ignition mode will not change
with the other transmitter or with the
transmitter in the transmitter pocket,
your vehicle needs service. If the
ignition does change modes, the
first transmitter may be faulty. See
your dealer who can service the
theft-deterrent system and have a
new RKE transmitter programmed to
the vehicle.
It is possible for the immobilizer
system to learn new or replacement
RKE transmitters. Up to eight
transmitters can be programmed for
the vehicle. To program additional
transmitters, see "Programming
