DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-5-13

Description

General
The immobilisation system is essentially a stand alone system with its own controlling ECU located centrally behind 
the fascia.

On late 2003 model year vehicles (from VIN 242164 onwards), the EWS3-D immobilisation system was replaced. A 
new system was introduced which improved the process for adding or replacing keys, allowing the dealer to enable 
new keys using TestBook/T4. Apart from the immobilisation ECU, the system retains similar components and 
functionality of the previous immobilisation system. The system is not available as a replacement for vehicles fitted 
with an EWS3–D system.

Immobilisation System - General
The function of the immobilisation system is to prevent unauthorised starting of the vehicle. The ECU operates in a 
secure interface which cannot be by-passed or copied. Re-mobilisation is achieved through a transponder in the 
vehicle key which is energised by a transponder coil surrounding the ignition switch when the ignition is turned to 'AUX' 
position I. When energised, the transponder data is read by the immobilisation ECU which will confirm the validity of 
the start request.
