ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The immobiliser system is a theft deterrent system that determines whether to disable starting of the SFI system based on a comparison of the key ID code and the vehicle pre-registered code. The immobiliser system compares the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) preregistered ID code with the ID of the key-embedded transponder chip. If the ID codes do not match, the immobiliser system is activated and the SFI system cannot be started.
FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
| Component | Outline |
|---|---|
| Transponder key coil/amplifier (built into the engine switch) |
|
| Key | Receives the signals from the oscillators and returns the ID code to the door control receiver. |
| Steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) | Receives the steering unlock/lock signal from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), and activates the steering lock motor. |
| Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) |
|
| ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) | Receives the steering unlock or immobiliser disengage signals from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), certifies them, and transmits each disengage signal to the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) or ECM. |
| ECM | Receives the signal from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), and performs engine ignition and injection. |
| Indoor electrical key oscillator
|
Transmits key detection signals within the detection area in the cabin upon receiving a transmission request signal from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). A certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) request signal is activated when the key is brought into the cabin and the engine switch is pushed. |
| Door control receiver | Receives an ID code from the key in the detection area and transmits it to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). |
| Multi-media module receiver assembly*1
|
Illuminates or flashes. Illumination is controlled by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). |
| Radio receiver assembly*2, *3
