Bulletin Summary

When adapting keys using ODIS, an error message may be displayed once the test plan directs to cycle the key off. If error is displayed, this does not necessarily indicate key adaptation has failed. If the immobilizer light turns off (instead of flashes) when key is switched on, key adaptation is in process. Continue to cycle remaining keys through ignition and then wait 2 minutes with the key off after adapting the last key. After 2 minutes have elapsed, evaluate vehicle operation with all keys, waiting 2 minutes with ignition off between each key.

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
