To Position 1 or 2

After the electronic ignition switch control module (N73) has been released by the electric steering column control module (N26/5) allowing the remote control key to be turned, the remote control key can be turned to position 1 or 2 in the EIS. After
leaving position 0, the EIS interrupts the power supply for the ESC. This precaution prevents a malfunction in the steering column lock while driving. Upon reaching position 1 the CAN message circuit "15R ON" is transmitted, after reaching position 2 the CAN message circuit "15 ON" is transmitted. The drive authorization is checked by means of secret data interchange between the EIS and engine control module.


NOTE: In positions 1 and 2 the remote control key cannot be removed.
