DESCRIPTION
When the key is inserted into the ignition key cylinder, the antenna coil receives the key code. Then the amplifier amplifies the ID code and outputs it to the transponder key ECU assembly.
If this symptom occurs, there may be a communication problem between the transponder key amplifier and the transponder key ECU assembly.
