Engine Immobilizer System (w/o Smart Key System)





THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM (w/o Smart Key System): B2799: Engine Immobiliser System Malfunction
B2799 - Engine Immobiliser System Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when one of the following occurs: 1) the ECM detects errors in its own communications with the transponder key ECU assembly; 2) the ECM detects errors in the communication lines; or 3) the ECU - ECM communication ID between the transponder key ECU assembly and ECM is different and an engine start is attempted. Before troubleshooting for this DTC, make sure no engine immobiliser DTCs are output. If output, troubleshoot the engine immobiliser DTCs first.





* *1: Only output while a malfunction is present.

* *2: for Automatic Transaxle

* *3: for manual Transaxle

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
* The fixed 12 V power source voltage in the ECM is output through a resistance from terminal IMI. The transponder key ECU assembly grounds or does not ground this power source voltage accordingly.
* The fixed 12 V power source voltage in the transponder key ECU assembly is output through a resistance from terminal EFII. The ECM grounds or does not ground this power source voltage accordingly.
* When replacing the transponder key ECU assembly or ECM, refer to Registration Engine Immobilizer System (w/o Smart Key System).
* After performing repairs, perform the operation that fulfills the DTC output confirmation operation, and then confirm that no DTCs are output again.

PROCEDURE

1. CLEAR DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs Engine Immobilizer System (w/o Smart Key System).

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Check for DTCs Engine Immobilizer System (w/o Smart Key System).

OK:

DTC B2799 is not output.
