When the contact is off and the anti starting system is activated, without any existing failure,

the anti starting indicator must blink slowly (a blink per second).

After setting the contact on, the anti starting indicator must light for 3 seconds and then turn off.
If after setting the contact on, the anti starting system doesn’t work properly, then the anti

starting indicator will blink rapidly (2 blinks per second).

After ordering a new key head based on the alphanumeric code mentioned on the invoice,

dismount the old key head and remove the metal insertion (mechanical part), then introduce the
old metal insertion in the new key head according to the previously mentioned procedure. In
case the key head is provided with RF remote control for blocking/ unlocking the doors, after its
replacement, perform the synchronising procedure of the RF remote control with the decoder,
subject to the following cases:

(a)- the vehicle has a key with RF remote control and one without RF remote control; in this

case after the replacement of the RF key, perform the “simple synchronised procedure” in order
to bring into phase the RF remote control with the decoder.
( b)- the vehicle has two keys with RF remote control; after the replacement of one RF key,
perform the “specific synchronised procedure”;

(c)- the vehicle has two keys with RF remote control; if both keys are replaced, perform the

“simple synchronised procedure for the firs key and the “specific synchronised procedure” for
the second one.

If a key was lost, a new key head and a metal insertion will be ordered.

All the new decoders, are not coded. After the mounting on the vehicle it is necessary the

memorisation of the key head code by the decoder in order to be operational. If only the
decoder is replaced, no intervention is necessary to the injection computer, which will keep the
old anti starting code. When the vehicle is provided with RF remote control for blocking/unlocking
the doors, the performing of the resynchronisation of the keys with the decoder is imposed, after
its mounting.
If further to the diagnostic of the anti starting system, using the CLIP tester, the replacement of
the decoder is imposed, proceed as follows:

- disconnect the front wiring connector from the E.C.U. decoder ( the contact being off);
- dismount the attachment screws of the E. C. U. decoder on the front left pillar;
- mount the new E.C.U. decoder;
- connect the front wiring to the new decoder.

Proceed then to the insertion of the anti starting code using the contact key, then to its memorising

(validation) in the E.C.U. decoder, using the CLIP tester. For this purpose, perform the “E.C.U.
decoder replacement procedure and anti starting code memorising”. Check then the correct
operation of the anti starting system with both keys.

E.C.U. DECODER REPLACEMENT

ATTENTION
Once the decoder has memorised the key codes, this code cannot be erased

or replaced with another one.

If it is necessary the replacement of the kit (E.C.U. decoder and two key heads), after that

realise the “ Kit replacement procedure”.

If further to the diagnostic, it is established the necessity of the replacement of the anti starting

bushing, proceed as follows:

- dismount the attachment screws of the steering wheel casing ;
- unlock the steering wheel and bring it in low position;
- remove the steering wheel upper casing;
- disconnect the anti starting bushing connector from the front wiring;
- remove the bushing;
- mount the new bushing outside the starting contact (anti theft) system;
- connect the bushing connector to the front wiring;
- mount the steering wheel casing;
- check the operation of the indicator and the anti starting system when the contact is off,

then with the contact on and the engine started.
