    1. New key code registration (Procedure "A"):
      NOTE: This is the condition that no key codes are registered in the transponder key ECU.

      HINT:

      • In this mode, a maximum of 2 master key codes can be registered.
      • New key codes must be registered with the battery connected. The ignition switch can be either on or off.
      • When a new transponder key ECU is installed, key codes must be registered in the transponder key ECU.

      Automatic Key Code Registration (New Registration):

      Procedure Security Indicator Light Condition
      1. Start Blinking
      HINT:
      Until first key is inserted
      2. Insert the master key into the ignition key cylinder. ON
      3. Techstream operation
      Select the following menu items: Body Electrical / Immobilizer / Utility / Key Registration
      HINT:
      After completing the above operation, proceed to the next step in accordance with the prompts on the Techstream screen.
      OFF for 1 second and then ON
      4. Remove the key and then push the Next button on the Techstream. ON
      5. Insert the master key to be registered and then push the Next button on the Techstream. OFF for 1 second and then ON
      6. Remove the key. Blinking
      7. End (Procedure "E")

      HINT:

      • A brief outline of key code registration procedure is shown above. For detailed information, refer to the .
      • When the engine Immobilizer system is operating normally and the key is pulled out, the security indicator light blinks continuously.
      • If the new key code registration fails, code 2-1 will be output through the security indicator light. Trying to re-register an already registered key will cause code 2-2 to be output when the key is inserted. If the number of registered key codes exceeds the maximum limit, code 2-3 will be output through the security indicator light. The output details are shown below.

    2. Finish the automatic key code registration mode. 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.

      HINT:

      • without the Techstream:

        Turn the ignition switch on and off 5 times within 10 seconds using the master key that has already been registered.

      • with the Techstream:

        Follow the instruction on the Techstream screen to end new key code registration mode.

  3. REGISTRATION OF ADDITIONAL KEY 
    1. Additional registration (Procedure "B"):

      HINT:

      • A maximum of 5 key codes and 3 sub-key codes can be registered.
      • Registration mode will end if any step is not completed within the specified time.
      • When the ignition 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 the new key as the master key. If necessary, use this master key to register other keys.
      NOTE: When the ignition key cylinder has been replaced, locking and unlocking doors are possible with the new master key's transmitter module (removed from the original master key). However, the new master key will not be able to lock and unlock doors through the door key cylinder. Keep the original master key. If the battery in the new master key's transmitter module fails, the original master key can be used to lock and unlock doors through the door key cylinder.

  5. ECU COMMUNICATION ID REGISTRATION 
    1. ECU communication ID registration (Procedure "D"):
      NOTE:
      • When the transponder key ECU is replaced, the ECU communication ID of the ECM must be registered into the transponder key ECU to match their ECU communication IDs.
      • The engine cannot be started unless the ECU communication IDs match.
      • Do not turn the ignition switch from on to off 20 times or more before setting the ECU communication ID. Turning the ignition switch from on to off 20 times or more will result in the engine not starting unless the transponder key ECU is replaced with a new one.
      • After the registration, turning the ignition switch to the START position may not start the engine on the first try. If so, turn the ignition switch to the START position again.
      • After the engine is started, erase DTC B2799 (code for ECM's Immobilizer communication error) by either of the following:
        • Using the Techstream.
        • Disconnecting the battery for 30 seconds.
      1. Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of the DLC3.
