Chevrolet Camaro Owner Manual - 2010
Keys, Doors and Windows 1-11
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically
immobilized when the key is
removed from the ignition.
The system is automatically
disarmed when the vehicle is
started with the correct key. The key
uses a transponder that matches
an immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle and automatically disarms
the system. Only the correct key
starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the key is damaged.
The immobilizer light, located in the
instrument panel cluster, comes on
if there is a problem with arming
or disarming the theft-deterrent
system. See Immobilizer Light
on
page 4‑27
.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
immobilizer light comes on briefly
when the ignition is turned on.
If the engine does not start and the
immobilizer light stays on there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start, and
the key appears to be undamaged,
try another ignition key.
If the engine still does not start and
the light continues to stay on try
another key.
If the engine still does not start with
the other key, the vehicle needs
service. If the vehicle does start,
the first key may be damaged.
See your dealer who can service
the theft-deterrent system and have
a new key made.
Do not leave the key or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft
deterrent system in the vehicle.
