Examples of Incorrect Input of Code Word

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

The security light must flash one or more times between the digits of the code word.
If the code word is input incorrectly, the security light goes out. Turn the ignition switch to ON position then back to LOCK position five times (except PCM replacement) or six times (PCM replacement) and repeat the procedure to input all eight figures for the code word.
When an error occurs during the reprogram procedures except when both the immobilizer unit and PCM are replaced, repeat the procedure from Step 1. If you still cannot reprogram, confirm how many keys can start the engine. Then, perform the key replacement or addition reprogram procedure according to the valid key number.

The security light flashes ten or more times while the ignition switch is at ON position.
