PASS-Key
®
III+ Electronic
Immobilizer Operation
Your vehicle is equipped with the PASS-Key
®
III+
(Personalized Automotive Security System)
theft-deterrent system. PASS-Key
®
III+ is a passive
theft deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed when the key is
removed from the ignition.
You do not have to manually arm or disarm the system.
The security light will come on if there is a problem with
arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
When the PASS-Key
®
III+ system senses that someone
is using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle's
starter and fuel systems. The starter will not work and
fuel will stop being delivered to the engine. Anyone
using a trial-and-error method to start the vehicle will be
discouraged because of the high number of electrical
key codes.
If the engine does not start and the security message
comes on, the key may have a damaged transponder.
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. At this time,
you may also want to check the instrument panel PASS
KEY fuse. If the engine still does not start with the other
key, your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does
start, the first key may be faulty. See your dealer/retailer
or a locksmith who can service the PASS-Key
®
III+ to
have a new key made. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers
