IMMOBILIZER SYSTEMDESCRIPTION:
Immobilizer system is designed to prevent vehicle
theft by electronically disabling the engine starting
system. The engine can be started only with
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key which
has an electronic identification programmed
code. The electronic key communicates the
identification code to Immobilizer control unit (ICU)
when the key is turned to the “Ignition ON” position.
Immobilizer comes with two Electronic keys (E-
key), (maximum 6 E-keys are possible). The
immobilizer used is based on CAN system.
CAUTION:
As CAN communication protocol doesn’t work
beyond 18V, vehicle will not start under “Jump
Start with voltage > 18 V” conditions.
