PASS-Key II(R) System Verification

  1. Perform PASS-KEY II(R) DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK. Ensure system will detect use of incorrect key by turning off engine. Disconnect PASS-Key II(R) 48-pin connector at base of steering column. Connect Interrogator (J-35628) to 48-pin connector. Set key code on interrogator to an incorrect key code. Attempt to start engine.
  2. If engine cranks, replace Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) and repeat PASS-KEY II(R) DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK. If engine does not crank within 3-minute lock-out period while SECURITY indicator is illuminated, turn ignition off. Disconnect interrogator and reconnect 48-pin connector at base of steering column. Attempt to start engine. If engine cranks, replace IPC and repeat PASS-KEY II(R) DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK.
  3. If engine does not crank, turn ignition off. Wait at least 3 minutes until end of lock-out period (SECURITY indicator will go out) and attempt to start engine. If engine does not start, see NOTES ON INTERMITTENTS  . If engine starts, system is functioning correctly. If an intermittent problem is suspected, see NOTES ON INTERMITTENTS.
