CODING THE ELECTRIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Note: The electric lock is supplied uncoded. It must therefore learn the immobiliser code when fitted in order to allow the ignition to be switched on.- Insert the card into the card holder.
- Press the start button ("start").
- Remove the card from the card holder to switch off the ignition.
- The electric steering column lock locks the steering column after a few seconds; it is then coded.
- The red immobiliser indicator flashes to indicate that the immobiliser function is active.
- The injection ECU retains its immobilizer code for life.
- The system has no fault-finding code.
- It is forbidden to carry out tests with control units borrowed from the spare parts store, which must then be returned.
- These ECUs can no longer be coded.
