1. Immobilizer Control Module
8G-4 IMMOBILIZER CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
IMMOBILIZER CONTROL MODULE
Immobilizer Control Module is installed to the underside of the
instrument panel at the driver’s seat side.
As main functions, Immobilizer Control Module checks matching
not only between the Transponder Code transmitted from the igni-
tion key and that registered in Immobilizer Control Module (Up to
4 different Transponder codes can be registered.) but also between
the ECM/Immobilizer Control Module code transmitted from
ECM/PCM and that registered in Immobilizer Control Module. In
addition, it has an on-board diagnostic system (self-diagnosis func-
tion) which is described in “On-Board Diagnostic System (Self-
Diagnosis Function)” in this section.
ECM/PCM
As main functions, ECM/PCM not only checks matching of ECM/
Immobilizer Control Module code but also has an on-board diag-
nostic system (self-diagnosis function) as described in “On-Board
Diagnostic System (Self-Diagnosis Function)” in this section.
For installation position of ECM/PCM, refer to Section 6E1 or 6E2.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
