Immobilizer System Detects a Problem

• When the ignition switch is turned ON (II), and a programmed immobilizer code is not identified, the immobilizer indicator quickly flashes once and then blinks continuously.
• The immobilizer system results will vary depending on how quickly the key is turned. If the key is turned quickly from the OFF (0) position to the START (III) position, the engine will start and run for approximately 1 second and shut off. If the key is turned to the ON (II) position, delayed there, and then turned to START (III) position, the starter will turn the motor over, but it will not start.
• When the ignition switch is turned OFF (0), the immobilizer indicator will blink ten times then go off to indicate the system is correctly reset.

Refer to the IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM for specific tests and troubleshooting procedures.
