Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic engine immobilizer system to reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle use.
Your immobilizer system is comprised of a small transponder in the ignition key and electronic devices inside the vehicle.
With the immobilizer system, whenever you insert your ignition key into the ignition switch and turn it to ON or Whenever the engine start/stop button is changed to the ON position, it checks and determines and verifies if the ignition key is valid or not.
