• If it appears that a problem is occurring because of faulty

registration of a code.

A maximum of four different codes can be stored in the
EEPROM memory (four different transmitters can be used).
When the code for the first transmitter is registered, the previ-
ously registered codes for all transmitters are cleared. There-
fore, if you are using two or more transmitters or are adding
more transmitters, the codes for all transmitters must be regis-
tered at the same time.
1. Check that the doors lock normally when the key is used.
2. Insert the ignition key.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to "LOCK"(OFF) position before connect-
ing or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
3. Connect the scan tool to the data link connector. If the scan

tool is not used, ground terminal (1) of the data link
connector.
NOTE: This will connect terminal (1) of the data link connec-
tor to ground, and the system will be in secret code registra-
tion standby mode.

4. Press the hazard switch six times within 10 seconds.

NOTE: At this time the code registration monitor request is
output (all doors locked and unlocked) and becomes regis-
tration mode.
NOTE: The hazard warning light switch is turned on and off
alternately whenever it is pushed.

5. Press the transmitter switch, and then press it two times

within 10 seconds of the first press. This will register the
code.

6. When registration is completed, the code registration

monitor request is output (all doors locked and unlocked).

7. If you are using two or more transmitters or have added a

second transmitter, the same registration procedure should
be carried out within one minute after registering the code
for the first transmitter. After the second registration is
completed, the code registration monitor request is output
(all doors locked and unlocked).

8. Registration mode will be canceled under the following

conditions:

• When the secret code for four transmitters has been regis-

tered;

• When one minute has been passed after registration mode

started;

• When scan tool MB991502 is disconnected (the ground

connection is broken);

• When the key is removed from the key cylinder;
