- Check the number of times the immobilizer-keyless control unit doesn't permit the engine to run by checking the STATUS LOG
- Connect the HDS to the data link connector, then turn the ignition switch to ON (II) and follow the prompts to the MAIN MENUNOTE: If the HDS does not communicate with the vehicle, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING )
- At MAIN MENU, enter IMMOBI, then select IMMOBILIZER SETUP
- Do the SYSTEM CHECK If there is a system check number, do the troubleshooting for the item indicated
- Check the STATUS LOG using the HDS Troubleshoot the line with the highest counts first (see STATUS LOG ) If all the lines are 0 (zero), the problem may not be caused by the immobilizer system, check for ignition or fuel problems
