I2K-2 system operation
The key electronic codes are stored in the instrument panel control unit that work as
Immobilizer.
The transponder contained in each key is powered by the antenna inside the ignition switch.
The instrument panel control unit reads the electronic code contained in the key and
compares it with the codes enabled upon engine start; then it sends to the engine control unit
the engine start enabling signal via CAN line.
