Immobilizer Antenna Coil Assembly
The immobilizer coil assembly is located in the center console, directly beneath the transmitter pocket. If the transmitter battery is dead, weak, or the RF signal is being interrupted, the transmitter may be placed in the pocket to create a low powered coupling between the transmitter and immobilizer antenna, allowing communications to occur and enabling vehicle starting.
The immobilizer antenna coil is controlled by the BCM. The immobilizer control module is also active when learning vehicle keys.
