IGNITION KEY REMINDER TONE ALARM
The ignition key reminder tone alarm will sound under the following condition, and warn the driver to remove the ignition key.
- The driver's door is opened when the ignition switch is at "LOCK" (OFF) or "ACC" position without removing the ignition key.
However, the light reminder tone alarm will take precedence over this function.
IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
The immobilizer system consists of the ignition key, the key ring antenna, the immobilizer-ECU, and the engine control module (ECM). The ignition key has a built-in transponder. Only the registered ignition key permits the engine to start, therefore, the engine can never be started by means of a forged key or by connecting the ignition wiring directly. The system is significantly safe and reliable against theft. In addition, the driver has only to turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position to activate the immobilizer system. If the requirements for starting the engine are not satisfied, the engine will be immobilized. If a registered ignition key is lost, all your ignition keys need to be registered again using scan tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly) to ensure security (Refer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE ). An additional ignition key can be registered as follows (only if two registered ignition keys are available)
- Using scan tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly) (Refer to «ON-VEHICLE SERVICE»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/antenna-systems/#chassis-electrical-lancer-evolution) ).
- By operating two ignition keys that have been already registered (Refer to «ON-VEHICLE SERVICE»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/antenna-systems/#chassis-electrical-lancer-evolution) ).
Scheme 192
- After the ignition is switched on, the engine control module sends a control signal and transponder read command signal to the immobilizer-ECU.
- When the immobilizer-ECU receives the control signal from the engine control module through the key ring antenna, the immobilizer-ECU supplies a current and sends random number data to the transponder in the ignition key.
- The transponder uses the random number data to derive an ID code, which is sent to the immobilizer-ECU through the key ring antenna.
- The immobilizer-ECU compares the ID code that was sent with pre-registered ID codes, and if it matches, a control signal approving ignition is sent to the engine control module. If the ID code does not match (in the case of counterfeit ignition keys, for example), the immobilizer-ECU sends a control signal denying ignition to the engine control module, preventing the engine from starting.
To replace immobilizer system related parts, refer to the table IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM SPECIFICATION below. When the ignition key is re-registered with scan tool MB991958, the originally registered ignition key registration information will be lost.

INTRODUCTION TO IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
| CAUTION | The encrypted code should always be re-registered when replacing the immobilizer-ECU. The immobilizer system consists of the ignition key, the key ring antenna, the immobilizer-ECU, and the engine control module. If the engine cannot be started by using a registered ignition key, one of these components may be defective. If the immobilizer system has immobilized the engine, MFI system DTC P0513 will be output. In this case, observe the immobilizer system troubleshooting. |

| CAUTION | Because registering the encrypted codes is done after all previously-registered codes have been erased, you should keep all of the ignition keys that have already been registered accessible. |
If the ignition key, Immobilizer-ECU, ECM is replaced or an ignition key is added, encrypted codes of all the ignition keys must be registered. (A maximum of eight different ignition key can be registered). Moreover, when the immobilizer-ECU has been replaced, you will need to use scan tool MB991958 to register the immobilizer-ECU and input the vehicle secret code and to register the password (secret code) into the immobilizer-ECU.
If an attempt is made to start the engine with an unregistered ignition key, cranking occurs, but fuel supply is cut off to disable the engine. In approx. 10 seconds, the immobilizer indicator will blink for approx. 30 seconds.
Note. ECM has an encrypted code for immobilizer-ECU, and the encrypted code is registered in the immobilizer-ECU and ignition key.

Scheme 405
Note. About FM waves: FM waves have the same properties as light, and can be deflected and blocked. Wave reception is not possible in the shadow of obstructions such as buildings or mountains.
- The signal becomes weak as the distance from the station's transmission antenna increases. This may depend on the signal strength of the transmitting station and intervening geographical formation of buildings. Generally speaking, the area of good reception is approximately 20 - 25 km (12-16 miles) for stereo reception, and 30 - 40 km (19 -25 miles) for monaural reception.
- The signal becomes weak when an area of shadow from the transmitting antenna (places where there are obstructions such as mountains or buildings between the station transmitter and the vehicle), and noise will appear. < This is called first fading, and gives a steady buzzing noise. >
- If a direct signal hits the antenna at the same time as a signal reflected by obstructions such as mountains or buildings, interference of the two signals will generate noise. During traveling, noise will appear each time the vehicle's antenna passes through this kind of obstructed area. The strength and interval of the noise varies according to the signal strength and the conditions of deflection. < This is called multipath noise, and is a repetitive buzzing. >
- Since FM stereo transmission and reception has a weaker field than monaural, it is often accompanied by a hissing noise. After taking measures to prevent the noise, check that no noise occurs.
- Change to a different station with a stronger wave to boost resistance to interference.
- Suppress high tones to reduce noise.
- Extend antenna completely. If there is noise, the following causes can be considered.
- If due to vehicle noise: It may not be possible to prevent noise if the signal is weak.
- If due to external noise: In almost all cases, prevention on the receiver side is impossible. Weak signals especially are susceptible to interference. If there is more noise than on radios in other vehicles, find out the noise condition and the name and frequency of the receiving stations from the owner, and consult with the radio manufacturer's service center.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 8: Mixed With Noise, Only at Night (AM).
The following factors can be considered as possible causes of noise occurring at night.
- Factors due to signal conditions: Due to the fact that long-distance signals are more easily received at night, even stations that are received without problem during the day may experience interference in a general worsening of reception conditions. The weaker a station is, the more susceptible it is to interference, and a change to different station or the appearance of a beating sound* may occur. NOTE: Beat sound*: Two signals close in frequency interfere with each other, creating a repetitious high-pitched sound. This sound is generated not only by sound signals but electrical waves as well.
- Factors due to vehicle noise: Generator noise may be a cause.
- STEP 1. Check that the noise is still obvious even when the lights are off. Q: Is the noise still obvious even when the lights are off? YES: Go to Step 2. NO: Go to Step 3 .
- STEP 2. Check with the following actions. Tune to a station with a stronger signal. Tune to a station with a stronger signal without completely extending the antenna (Whip antenna). Q: Is there more noise than on the radio in other vehicles? YES: Consult the radio manufacturer's service center. NO: Check that there is no noise.
- STEP 3. Check that the noise fades away when the vehicle harness is moved away from the radio (if the harness is not in the proper position). Q: Does the noise fade away when the vehicle harness is moved any from the radio (if the harness is not in the proper position)? YES: Consult the radio manufacturer's service center. NO: If there is more noise than other radios, consult the radio manufacturer's service center.

When the engine is stopped: Go to Step 3. When the engine is running: Check the vehicle's noise suppressor. (Refer to «INSPECTION PROCEDURE 11»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/antenna-systems/#chassis-electrical-lancer-evolution) .)
- STEP 3. Check that the following actions eliminate the noise. Tune to a station with a stronger signal. Extend the antenna completely (roof antenna pole). Adjust the sound quality to suppress high tones. Q: Is the noise eliminated? YES: Consult the radio manufacturer's service center. NO: Go to Step 4.
- STEP 4. Check that the radio is correctly grounded The radio is connected to the ground with an assembling screw. Q: Is the radio correctly grounded? YES: Go to Step 5. NO: Consult the radio manufacturer's service center.
- STEP 5. Check the connection of the antenna plug and radio and CD player. Q: Is the antenna plug thoroughly connected to the radio and CD player? YES: Go to Step 7 . NO: Go to Step 6.

There is much noise only on AM. Due to differences in AM and FM systems, AM is more susceptible to noise interference.
- STEP 1. Check that there is noise under the following state(s). A motorcycle was passing. Lighting was flashing. A vehicle passed close by, but it appeared to be a vehicle generating a particularly large amount of noise radiation. Passed beneath a power line. Passed beneath a telephone line. Passed close by a signal generator. Passed close by some other sources of electrical noise. Passed under a bridge. Q: Is there noise in the above states? YES: Go to Step 3 . NO: Go to Step 2.
- STEP 2. Continue to check for static; when static is detected, check for the conditions listed above. Q: Is there noise in the state described in Step 1 ? YES: Noise prevention on the radio side is difficult. If the problem is particularly worse than other radios, consult a service center. NO: Go to Step 3.
- STEP 3. Noise prevention on the radio side is difficult. Q: Is the noise level worse than other radios? YES: Consult a service center. Noise encountered during FM reception only. Due to differences in FM and AM systems, FM is not as susceptible as AM to interference from engines, power lines, lighting, etc. On the other hand, due to the characteristics of FM waves, there are sometimes cases of noise or distortion which are generated by typical noise interference (first fading and multipath). (Refer to «INSPECTION PROCEDURE 6»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/antenna-systems/#chassis-electrical-lancer-evolution) .) < Noise (hissing) occurs in weak signal areas such as mountainous regions, but this is not due to Furthermore, the amount of interference will be comparatively less for vehicles equipped with a diversity antenna system*. If there is an equivalent amount of distortion in vehicles or radios of the same type, then differences will be because of differences in antenna systems, and this should be explained to the user. a problem with the radio. > Furthermore, the amount of interference will be comparatively less for vehicles equipped with a diversity antenna system*. If there is an equivalent amount of distortion in vehicles or radios of the same type, then differences will be because of differences in antenna systems, and this should be explained to the user. NO: If the noise level is roughly the same as other radios, there is no action to be taken.
| CAUTION | Connecting a high tension cable to the noise filter may destroy the noise filter and should never be done. Check that there is no external noise. Since failure to do this may result in an incorrect diagnosis due to the inability to identify the noise source, this operation must be performed. Noise prevention should be performed by suppressing strong sources of noise step by step. |
Note. Capacitor: The capacitor does not pass DC current, but as the number of waves increases when it passes AC current, impedance (resistance against AC) decreases, and current flow is facilitated. A noise suppressing capacitor which take advantage of this property is inserted between the power line for the noise source and the ground. This suppresses noise by grounding the noise component (AC or pulse signal) to the body of the vehicle.
Note. Coil: The coil passes DC current, but impedance rises as the number of waves increases relative to the AC current. A noise suppressing coil which takes advantage of this property is inserted into the power line for the noise source, and works by preventing the noise component from flowing or radiating out of the line.
| NOISE TYPE SOUNDS ARE IN PARENTHESES | CONDITIONS | CAUSE | REMEDY |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM or FM: ignition noise (popping, snapping, cracking, buzzing) | Increasing the engine speed causes the generator whine sound to speed up and the volume to decrease Disappears when the ignition switch turned to "ACC." | Mainly due to the spark plugs Due to engine noise | Check or replace the ground cable. Check or replace the noise capacitor. |
| Other electrical components | Noise may occur as the electrical components become older. | Repair or replace the electrical components. | |
| Static electricity (cracking, crinkling) | Disappears when the vehicle is completely stopped. Severe when the clutch is engaged | Occurs when parts or wiring move for some reason and contact metal parts of the body. | Return parts or wiring to their proper position. |
| Static electricity (cracking, crinkling) | Various noise are produced depending on the body part of the vehicle. | Due to removal of the front hood, bumpers, exhaust pipe and muffler, suspension, etc. | Ground parts by bonding. Cases where the problem is not eliminated by a signal response to one area are common, due to several body parts being imperfectly grounded. |
