System Description

NVIS (Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System-NATS) has the following immobilizer functions:

• Since only NVIS (NATS) ignition keys, whose IDs have been registered into the ECM and BCM, allow the engine to run, operation of a stolen vehicle without a NVIS (NATS) registered key is prevented by NVIS (NATS).

  NVIS (NATS) will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key of NVIS (NATS).

• All of the originally supplied ignition key IDs have been NVIS (NATS) registered.

  If requested by the vehicle owner, a maximum of five key IDs can be registered into the NVIS (NATS) components.

• The security indicator blinks when the ignition switch is in OFF or ACC position. NVIS (NATS) warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.
• When NVIS (NATS) detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition key is in the ON position.
• NVIS (NATS) trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other NVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs must be carried out using CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II NVIS (NATS) software. When NVIS (NATS) initialization has been completed, the ID of the inserted ignition key is automatically NVIS (NATS) registered. Then, if necessary, additional registration of other NVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs can be carried out.

  Regarding the procedures of NVIS (NATS) initialization and NVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-II Operation Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS

• When servicing a malfunction of the NVIS (NATS) (indicated by lighting up of Security Indicator Lamp) or registering another NVIS (NATS) ignition key ID, it may be necessary to re-register original key identification. Therefore, be sure to receive ALL KEYS from vehicle owner.
