      Target ECU See step
      Transponder key ECU 5
  2. KEY REGISTRATION IN AUTOMATIC REGISTRATION (NEW REGISTRATION) 
    1. The new registration of the key codes (immobilizer codes) is made automatically.

      HINT:

      • When you install a new transponder key ECU, the key codes (immobilizer codes) must be registered.
      • A new transponder key ECU starts in the automatic key code registration mode. In this mode, a maximum of 4 key codes for 3 master keys and 1 sub key can be registered. Since the transponder key ECU can distinguish types of keys, the registration order is not specified.

      HINT:

      • When no key is inserted in the ignition key cylinder in the automatic key code registration mode, the security indicator remains on.
      • When the immobilizer system is operating normally and the key is pulled out, the security indicator blinks.
      NOTE: If the key code registration has failed in the automatic key code registration mode, code 2-1 will be output from the security indicator. Trying to re-register an already registered key will cause code 2-2 to be output when the key is inserted. When the maximum number of keys are registered, trying to register a new key will cause code 2-3 to be output. The output details are shown in Fig 2.

    2. Finish the automatic key code registration mode.

      HINT:

      The automatic key code registration mode can be forced to end when at least 1 key code (immobilizer code) for the master key has been registered.

      Turn the ignition switch ON/OFF alternately 5 times within 10 seconds using the already registered master key.

  3. REGISTRATION OF ADDITIONAL KEY (ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION) 

    Register an additional key by using the hand-held tester.

    HINT:

    • A maximum of 5 master key codes and 3 sub key codes can be registered.
    • Registration mode will end if each step is not completed within the specified time.
    • When the ignition key cylinder or the key cylinder set is replaced, remove the transmitter module from the original master key. Then install this transmitter module to a new key and use it as master key. If necessary, use this master key to register other keys.
    NOTE: When only the ignition key cylinder has been replaced, you can lock or unlock doors by wireless operation using the new key (with built-in transmitter) but not by inserting it in the door key cylinder. Therefore, keep the original key for door lock/unlock operation in order to avoid problems when the new key's transmitter battery needs to be replaced.

    Additional Registration

    HINT:

    • A brief outline of procedures for key code registration is shown. For detailed information, please refer to the prompts on the screen of the hand-held tester.
    • When the immobilizer system is operating normally and the key is pulled out, the security indicator blinks.
    NOTE: If the key code registration has failed in the automatic key code registration mode, code 2-1 will be output from the security indicator. Trying to re-register an already registered key will cause code 2-2 to be output when the key is inserted. The output details are shown in step  2 (new registration).
  4. ERASURE OF KEY CODE 

    Erase key codes by using the hand-held tester.

    HINT:

    • All key codes are erased except for the master key which is used for erasing the key codes.

      In order to use a key for which the code has been erased, it is necessary to register the key code again.

    • Registration operation will be cancelled if each step is not completed within the specified time.

    HINT:

    • A brief outline of procedures for key code registration is shown. For detailed information, please refer to the prompts on the screen of the hand-held tester.
    • When the immobilizer system is operating normally and the key is pulled out, the security indicator blinks.
  5. ECU COMMUNICATION ID REGISTRATION 
    NOTE:
    • The ECU communication ID should be registered when the transponder key ECU and/or the ECM is replaced in order to match the ECM COMMUNICATION ID.
    • The engine cannot be started unless the ECM COMMUNICATION ID matches.

    Register the ECU communication ID.
