Component Inspection

■ Check Smart Key ECM Inspection 

  1. IG KEY "ON" & Engine "OFF"
  2. Neutralize smart key ECM with GDS.
  3. Perform key teaching procedure for smart key ECM with GDS.
    CAUTION:

    Pin code must be prepared to Neutralize Smart Key ECM and to perform key teaching procedure.

  4. Is the neutralization of Smart Key ECM, Engine ECM and key teaching normal?

    YES 

    • Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in Smart Key ECM and/or ECM's connector or was repaired and Smart key ECM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

    NO 

    • Substitute with a known-good Smart Key ECM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Smart Key ECM and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NOTE:
  • PIN code is programmed in Smart key ECM, Transponder, PDM and FOB.
    1. If the Smart key ECM is not registered with PIN, key teaching process is not proceeded
    2. Registering PIN is available after Smart Key ECM is neutralized.
    3. Neutralization of Engine ECM is available with GDS (Registering PIN code)
    4. If the virgin engine ECM is installed on vehicle, Engine ECM is automatically programmed PIN code by Smart Key ECM
    5. Registering PIN code is only possible for virgin or neutralized status.
  • It is possible to access to All of the learning procedure only with GDS.

    And, FOB key must be inserted in FOB holder in order to proceed learning procedure.

    (There is only one menu for registering Smart key on the GDS that makes registering all of the component. In case of replacing each module, New registration should be done with GDS)

    • Smart Key ECM Learning
      1. Before learning procedure for FOB Key, PDM, Smart Key ECM should be registered PIN code first.
      2. In case of replacing Smart Key ECM, All of the keys should be newly registered again.
      3. In case that Smart Key ECM receives 3 times with wrong PIN, It is not allowed for neutralization and Key Teaching for 1 hour.
      4. If the battery is discharged during neutralization or Teaching, Timer will start again from beginning. Therefore, it is avoidable to wail for 1 hour.
    • PDM Learning
      1. It is OK for registering PDM just one time. And, it is available for PDM to neutralize and re-teach with same PIN code.
