Neutralizing Of ECM
The PCM (ECM) can be set to the "neutral" status by a tester.
A valid ignition key is inserted and after ignition on is recorded, the PCM (ECM) requests the vehicle specific data from the tester. The communication messages are described at "Neutral Mode" After successfully receiving the data, the PCM (ECM) is neutralized.
The ECM remains locked. Neither the limp home mode nor the "twice ignition on" function, is accepted by the PCM (ECM).
The teaching of keys follows the procedure described for the virgin PCM (ECM). The vehicle specific data have to be unchanged due to the unique programming of the transponder. If data should be changed, new keys with a virgin transponder are requested.
This function is for neutralizing the PCM (ECM) and Key. Ex) when lost key, Neutralize the PCM (ECM) then teach keys.
(Refer to the Things to do when Key & PIN Code the PCM (ECM) can be set to the "neutral" status by a scanner. A valid ignition key is inserted and after ignition on is recorded, the PCM (ECM) requests the vehicle specific data from the scanner. The communication messages are described at "Neutral Mode". After successfully receiving the data, the PCM (ECM) is neutralized.
The PCM (ECM) remains locked. Neither the limp home mode nor the "twice ignition on" function is accepted by PCM (ECM).
The teaching of keys follows the procedure described for virgin PCM (ECM). The vehicle specific data have to be unchanged due to the unique programming of transponder. If data should be changed, new keys with virgin transponder are requested.
- Neutralizing setting condition
- In case of PCM (ECM) status "Learnt" regardless of user password "Virgin or Learnt"
- Input correct PIN code by scanner.
- Neutralizing meaning.
: PIN code (6) & user password (4) deletion.
: Locking of ECM (except key teaching permission)
