Title: Honda Immobilizer
1Honda Immobilizer
21949 Chrysler, first with starter switch in
ignition key
3Theft deterrent passively or actively interrupts
a circuit in the ignition, fuel, or start circuit.
4The key must be recognized in order for the
vehicle to start.
56 Immobilizer types
6Basic immobilizer components Key/transponder,
lock cylinder (transceiver/receiver),
Immobilizer control unit, ECM/PCM
7Transponder Key does not contain batteries
8There are billions of ID codes.
9Each system has a receiver unit which is an
antenna attached to the ignition switch.
10Receiver unit energizes the transponder (key) and
the transponder transmits the key code to the
immobilizer control unit.
11The ECM/PCM receives the unique serial code from
the immobilizer control unit
12Immobilizer control unit sends a unique serial
code to the ECM/PCM
13ECM/PCM confirms the ID code, it sends a
handshake back to the immobilizer control unit
14Serial codes are mutually recognized, the ECM/PCM
enables the fuel system
15Type one system, disables start and fuel
16Type 2 systems use a receiver connected to the
immobilizer control unit which is built into the
ECM/PCM
17Type 3 and 4 systems use an immobilizer control
unit and a receiver built into one unit
18Type 5 and 6 systems use a combination
immobilizer control unit receiver along with an
additional security IMOES unit(immobilizer entry
system)
19Type 6, engine start then code is checked, no
match engine dies
20Signal from the keyless access control unit is
sent out to the ECM/PCM and IMOES
21Master key with black grip ignition, door,
trunk, glove box. Valet key with gray grip
Ignition door locks
22traditional key and the sidewinder key (2002
later)
Matrix H Key Cutting Machine Required for
Sidewinder Key
23Type 2 3 stamped with a "F" for fixed
transponder codes.Type 4 - 6 stamped with a "V"
for rolling transponder codes
24Type 1 system 1997 - 2001 Prelude, 1996 - 2004
3.5RL, 1997-2005 NSX.
25Type 1 Red learning key puts immobilizer
system into a re-programming mode to add delete
keys. The red learning key will not start the
engine.
26A lost red learning key requires replacing the
immobilizer control unit.
27Green immobilizer system indicator confirms
operation. Controlled by immobilizer unit in
Types 1 through 5 and by CAN in Type 6.

31Vehicles normally come with three keys HDS needed
to program additional keys
32If one key is being added, you only need one
programmed key from the customer (except Type 1,
all programmed keys are needed.)
33At times, all programmed keys are needed for any
system
34Type 1 - 3 , ilco Key Code Duplicator and
ilco programmable key blanks marked with "T5"
can be used to make a duplicate key,
35Type 1 accept a total of 5 keys, not including
the red learning key. Type 2 - 6 accept a total
of 6 keys.

38If no programmed keys, or system failure, you can
still start the engine using a cut key blank and
a VIN specific Immobilizer Brake Code
395 digit brake code is entered using the ign
