Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the ignition is turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and
a valid transmitter is found in the
vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if
there is a problem with arming
or disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
The system has one or more
keyless access transmitters that are
matched to an immobilizer control
unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly
matched keyless access transmitter
starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the keyless access
transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the
security light comes on, there may
be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press the START button
again.
If the vehicle does not start and
the keyless access transmitter
appears to be undamaged, try
another keyless access transmitter.
Or, place the transmitter in the
transmitter pocket. See “NO FOBS
DETECTED” under Key and Lock
Messages on page 5‑42 for
additional information. Check
the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 10‑51. If the
engine still does not start with the
other transmitter, the vehicle needs
service. If the engine does start,
the first transmitter may be faulty.
See your dealer or have a new
keyless access transmitter
programmed to the vehicle.
The immobilizer system can
learn new or replacement keyless
access transmitters. Up to four
keyless access transmitters can
be programmed for the vehicle.
To program additional transmitters,
see “Matching transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle” under Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System Operation on
page 2‑3.
Do not leave the key or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft
deterrent system in the vehicle.
