Important Information on Programming
Security Code
The security code protects the immobiliser control unit
against unauthorized programming and data access
from TECH2. The security code consists of a 4-digit
code number and is programmed into the Immobiliser
Control Unit and Engine Control Module (ECM).
New control units are not programmed with a security
code.
If the control units are replaced, the security code must
be programmed into the new control unit with TECH2.
The security code can only be programmed with TECH2
once and must therefore be entered with great care.
Once programmed, the security code cannot be
overwritten.
An already used immobiliser can be reused in a
different vehicle by ‘resetting’ the immobiliser. After that
you can program the security code again. For the reset
command, you require the current security code.
Should it be necessary to remove the ICU from the
vehicle, the ICU MUST be “reset” with TECH2 prior to
removal.
If the immobiliser control unit is returned (e.g. warranty
cases), always enclosed the security code that is
allocated to that control unit.
Entering The Security Code
If the TECH2 display requests the
• Security code
• Mechanical key number
• Vehicle Identification Number
proceed as follows:
To input a digit you need to use the up and down
buttons of the TECH2. By using the numeric buttons the
according digit will be displayed at the current position
and the cursor will move to the next position.
To enter letters you need to use the up and down
buttons of the TECH2. The up and down keys can also
be used for digits. By using the up and down buttons the
displayed digit or letter will be increased or decreased.
To move to the next position you need to use the move-
to-right-button.
With the two buttons, move-to-right and move-to-left
you can select the position of number you want to
change.
This will allow you to correct a wrong number.
After the number is completed you need to press the
Enter button to accept the number.
NOTE:
Correction is no longer possible after pressing
ENTER.
Use the OKAY soft key to program the number and the
NOT OKAY soft key to abort the programming.
Transponder (Key)
•
••
• If a transponder key is lost:
If a transponder key is lost, all transponder keys in the
immobiliser control system must be erased.
Thereafter, existing and new transponder keys are
programmed consecutively using TECH2. The vehicle
can then no longer be started using lost key.
•
••
• 5 transponder keys can be provided:
Each transponder has different Identifications. If a
customer wants more than 2 transponder keys,
additional programming by TECH2 can provide
maximum 5 transponder keys.
•
••
• lf a new ignition key with different mechanical key
number needs to be installed:
If installation of an ignition lock with a different
mechanism key number is necessary (an ignition lock
which belongs to the mechanical key number has to be
ordered first), all transponder keys must first be erased
and the two transponder keys, w hich belong to the
ignition lock that is now installed, must be programmed.
The new mechanical key number must be programmed
now into the immobiliser. The mechanical key number
in the car pass is to be changed as well.
Important
After successful programming, the engine control can
only be used for vehicles with immobiliser and
transponder.
Faults that occur in connection with the immobiliser
control unit are recognized by the engine control unit
and as long as "IMMOBILISER" is not programmed, are
indicated by a flashing of the CHECK ENGINE lamp.
NOTE:
If the immobiliser and e ngine control unit are
replaced at the same time, the IMMOBILISER
CONTROL UNIT MUST BE PROGRAMMED FIRST
before the "IMMOBILISER" function in the engine
control unit can be activated.
