How To Register Encrypted Code
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Required Special Tool:
- MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)
CAUTION:
Because registering the encrypted codes is done after all previously-registered codes have been erased, you should keep all of the ignition keys that have already been registered accessible.
If the ignition key, the immobilizer-ECU, the ECM < M/T > or the PCM < A/T > is replaced or an ignition key is added, encrypted codes of all the ignition keys must be registered. (A maximum of eight different ignition key can be registered.) Moreover, when the immobilizer-ECU has been replaced, you will need to use scan tool MB991502 to register the immobilizer-ECU and input the vehicle secret code and to register the password (secret code) that the owner specifies into the immobilizer-ECU.
If an attempt is made to start the engine with an unregistered ignition key, cranking occurs, but fuel supply is cut off to disable the engine. In approx. 10 seconds, the theft-alarm indicator will blink for approx. 30 seconds.
NOTE:
ECM < M/T > or PCM < A/T > has an encrypted code for immobilizer-ECU, and the encrypted code is registered in the immobilizer-ECU and ignition key.
