How To Register Secret Code: Notes

CAUTION:

When adding the ignition key separately, or replacing the components by the steering lock cylinder of illustration <A> (the ignition key is simultaneously supplied) or the key set of illustration <B >, register the encrypted code. Refer to ENCRYPTED CODE REGISTRATION CRITERIA TABLE .

Each individual secret code is registered inside the transmitter, and so it is necessary to resister these codes with the EEPROM inside the receiver in the following cases.

When the transmitter or ETACS-ECU is replaced
If more transmitters are to be used
If it appears that a problem is occurring because of faulty registration of a code.

A maximum of four different codes can be stored in the EEPROM memory (four different transmitters can be used). When the code for the first transmitter is registered, the previously registered codes for all transmitters are cleared. Therefore, if you are using four transmitters or are adding more transmitters, the codes for all transmitters must be registered at the same time.
