System Description
Mechanical key
(Including transponder) Immobilizer key
MICU
(Imoes circuit) Mechanical key
Steering lock assembly Immobilizer-keyless
control unit
ECM/PCMTransmitter
(Including
transponder)
The vehicle is equipped with a type VI immobilizer system that will disable the vehicle unless a programmed ignition
key is used.
This system consists of a transponder combined with a keyless transmitter, immob
ilizer-keyless control unit, the MICU
(has built-in imoes unit), immobilizer indicator, and the ECM/PCM.
When the immobilizer key (programmed by the HDS) is inserted into the ignition switch and turned to ON (II), the
immobilizer-keyless control unit sends power to the trans ponder in the ignition key. The transponder then sends a
coded signal back to the immobilizer-keyless control unit which then sends a coded signal to the ECM/PCM and the
MICU (imoes unit). The ECM/PCM and MICU (imoes unit) identify this code signal, then fuel power is supplied.
NOTE: The transmitter is automatically programmed to the vehicle when a transponder is programmed by the HDS.
If the wrong key has been used or the code was not received or recognized by the unit, the indicator will come on for
about 2 seconds, then it will blink until the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0). When the ignition switch is turned to
LOCK (0), the indicator will blink ten times to signal that the unit has reset correctly, then the indicator will go off.

Message)
NOTE: If you are troubleshooting multiple DTCs, be
sure to follow the instructions in B-CAN System
Diagnosis Test Mode A (see page 22-93).
1. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
2. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), and then back to ON (II).
3. Wait for 6 seconds or more.
4. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Go to step 5.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this
time. Check for loose or poor connections at the
immobilizer-keyless control unit 7P c onnector, and
the under-dash fuse/relay box connector Q (16P).
5. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Faulty MICU; replace the under-dash fuse/
relay box (see page 22-66).
Replace the immobilizer-keyless control unit
(see page 22-332).
Is DTC B1905 indicated?
Is DT C B1160 also indicated with DT C B1905?

NOTE: If the HDS does not communicate with the vehicle, troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11-
204).
1. Do the PGM-FI system DTCs check. If there are any DTCs, troubleshoot the indicated DTC.
2. Do the Body Electrical DTCs check. If there are any DTC, troubleshoot the indicated DTC.
3. Do the system check using the HDS. If there is a system check number, do the troubleshooting for the item indicated (see page 22-326).
4. Check the status log using the HDS. Troubleshoot the line with the highest counts (see page 22-328). If all the lines are ‘‘0’’ zero, the problem may not be caused by the immobilizer system, check for ignition or fuel problems.
NOTE: Once repaired, clear the status log by removing the back up power fuse, or disconnecting the battery.
If a malfunction occurs in the immobilizer circuit for the VBU, IG1 and GND (LG) lines, identify the lines to check with
this table.
