wheel side to side for about

Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statement 0481.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically
immobilized when the vehicle is
turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
on or to ACC/ACCESSORY and a valid
remote key is present in the vehicle.
The security light, in the instrument
cluster, comes on if there is a problem
with arming or disarming the
theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more remote
keys matched to an immobilizer
control unit in the vehicle. Only a
correctly matched remote key will
start the vehicle. If the remote key is
ever damaged, you may not be able to
start your vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light may come on briefly.
If the engine does not start and the
security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
ignition off and try again. If the vehicle will not change ignition
modes (ACC/ACCESSORY, on, off), and
the remote key appears to be
undamaged, try another remote key.
Or, you may try placing the remote
key in the backup location. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation
07.
If the ignition modes will not change
with the other remote key or in the
backup location, the vehicle needs
service. If the ignition does change
modes, the first remote key may be
faulty. See your dealer.
It is possible for the immobilizer
system to learn new or replacement
remote keys. Up to eight remote keys
can be programmed for the vehicle. To
program additional remote keys, see
“Programming Remote Keys to the
Vehicle ”under Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation 07.
Do not leave the remote key or device
that disarms or deactivates the
theft-deterrent system in the vehicle.
