HG12IMM11P169111
ic

General Description
This wireless communication runs on Radio frequency.
The antenna coil is mounted on the top of ignition lock for
oe

RF transmission and receiving. The RF signal from the

transponder received by the antenna coil is converted
into messages for serial communication by the
Immobilizer unit. And the received messages from the
le

PCM/ECM are converted into an RF signal, which is

to the transponder by the antenna. Coil,transmitted
antenna provides energy to the transponder key and
c.

retrieves signal from the transponder and send it to

Immobilizer unit.
DTC Description
ir

The PCM/ECM sets DTC if there is any open or short

circuit between the antenna coil and Immobilizer unit.
