3. Use the ignition key that is to be registered to turn on
the ignition switch.
4. Use the MUT-II to register the ID code. If you are
registering two or more codes, use the next key to the
registered to turn on the ignition switch without
disconnecting the MUT-II.
5. Disconnect the MUT-II. This complete the registration
operation.
6. Check that the engine can be started with each of the
ignition keys.
7. Check the diagnosis output from the engine-ECU, and
erase code No.54 if it appears.
Resetting the code to the factory setting
<Diesel-powered vehicles>
Refer to the MUT-II INSTRUCTION MANUAL on handling
the MUT-II.
NOTE
Resetting the code to the factory setting refers to the process
of clearing the identification code which has been recorded
in the fuel cut valve controller and switching the controller
to learning mode. After this resetting is carried out, the
identification code in the immobilizer-ECU will be recorded
in the controller the next time the ignition switch is turned
to the ON.
1. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector.
Caution
Turn off the ignition switch before connecting or
disconnecting of the MUT-II.
2. Turn on the ignition switch.
3. Use the MUT-II to reset the code to the factory setting.
NOTE
Approximately 16 minutes are required to complete
resetting the code to the factory setting.
4. Disconnect the MUT-II

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL ± Radio and Tape Player54-65
A-4 Broadcasts can be heard but both AM and FM have a lot of noise.
(1)(2)
Noise occurs when the engine is stopped.
Ye s
Do the following measures eliminate the noise?

Tune to a station with a strong signal.

Extend the antenna completely.

Adjust the sound quality to suppress high tones.Ye s
OK
No
Is the radio body earth mounted securely?NoSecurely tighten the nuts for the body
earth.
Ye s
Is the antenna plug properly connected to the radio?NoCorrectly attach the antenna plug.
Ye s
Is the antenna itself in good condition or is it properly
mounted?NoClean the antenna plug and earth wire
mounting area. Mount the antenna se-
curely.
Ye s
If there is more noise than other radios, consult a service
centre.
Is the noise eliminated?
NoYe s
OK
Noise occurs when the engine in running.
Inspect the vehicle's noise suppressor. (Refer to A-6.)
NOTE
About noise encountered during FM reception only.
Due to differences in FM and AM systems, FM
is not as susceptible as AM to interference from
engines, power lines, lightning, etc. On the other
hand, there are cases due to the characteristicsof FM waves of noise or distortion generated by
typical noise interference (first fading and
multipath). (Refer to A-2.)
<Noise (hissing) occurs in weak signal areas such
as mountainous regions, but this is not due to a
problem with the radio.>

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL ± Radio and Tape Player54-66
A-5 There is more noise either on AM or on FM.
1. There is much noise only on AM.
Due to differences in AM and FM systems,
AM is more susceptible to noise interference.
Were conditions such as the following present when noise was
received?

Lightning was flashing. A motorcycle was passing.

A vehicle passed close by, but it appeared to be a vehicle
generating a particularly large amount of noise radiation.

Passed beneath a power line. Passed under a bridge.

Passed beneath a telephone line.

Passed close by a signal generator.

Passed close by some other source of electrical noise.
Ye s
No
Continue to check for static; when static is detected, check for
the conditions listed above.Ye sNoise prevention on the radio side is difficult. If the problem is
particularly worse than other radios, consult a service centre.
No
If the problem is particularly worse than other radios, consult a
service centre.
2. There is much noise only on FM.
Due to differences in FM and AM systems,
FM is not as susceptible as AM to interference
from engines, power lines, lightning, etc. On

Caution
Do not heat R-134a above 40
C
In most instances, moderate heat is required to
bring the pressure of the refrigerant in its container
above the pressure of the system when charging
or adding refrigerant.
A bucket or large pan of hot water not over 40
C
is all the heat required for this purpose. Do not
heat the refrigerant container with a blow torch
or any other means that would raise temperature
and pressure above this temperature. Do not weld
or steam clean on or near the system components
or refrigerant lines.
Caution
Keep R-134a containers upright when charging
the system.When metering R-134a into the refrigeration system
keep the supply tank or cans in an upright position.
If the refrigerant container is on its side or upside
down, liquid refrigerant will enter the system and
damage the compressor.
Caution
1. The leak detector for R-134a should be used
to check for refrigerant gas leaks.
2. Do not allow liquid refrigerant to touch bright
metal.
Refrigerant will tarnish bright metal and chrome
surfaces, and in combination with moisture can
severely corrode all metal surfaces.
