Key Code Erasure

Erasure of key codes can be accomplished using the scan tool. All codes will be erased except for the master key which is used for erasing the key codes. In order to use a key for which the code has been erased, it is necessary to register the key code again. Registration mode will be cancelled if any step is not completed within the specified time. Proceed with key code erasure as follows:

IMPORTANT: The security indicator is blinking until the first key is inserted into key cylinder.
  1. Insert the already registered master key in the ignition cylinder and turn the ignition switch ON.
  2. Install the scan tool and select the following data path:
    • Select IMMOBILIZER,
    • Select ID UTILITY,
    • Select IMMOB CODE ERA

      After completing the above operation, proceed to the next step in accordance with the prompts on the scan tool. This must be accomplished within 120 seconds. The security indicator will turn ON for approximately 1 second and the turn OFF.

  3. Remove the master key. This must be accomplished within 10 seconds of the instruction on the scan tool. The security indicator will turn ON.
