DESCRIPTION
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and power management control ECU control the vehicle engine immobiliser system functions. Engine immobiliser system data and Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) can be read through the vehicle Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3).
In some cases, a malfunction may be occurring in the engine immobiliser system even though the security indicator light is not illuminated.
When the system seems to be malfunctioning, use the Techstream to check for malfunctions and perform repairs.
