Toyota Tundra Engine Immobilizer System

Toyota Tundra Engine Immobilizer Security Feature.

Toyota tundra engine immobilizer system. I tried to jump it. And I love it sounds great fabulous programming They got back behind the radio to connect directly into the antenna input and since then the engine immobilizer wont go out after the engine is shut off. You can try turning the key on both sides lock and unlock.

When I got back home after the weekend I noticed my Tundra was completely dead. Should I have it towed to a mechanic. This system is a theft prevention device which will not allow the engine to start if any other than the right ignition key are used.

Use Your Car Door Key. Not sure if it got in before RIV added it to the list of inadmissible or what the deal is. And so does the glossy Tundra 2010 sales booklet.

Still trying to get info from Toyota USA and RIV but. Thing is in Oct I helped bring up a 2008 Tacoma it had the immobilizer and its good to golicensed and on the road up here. The only thing I dont like about it is the engine immobilizer anti-theft system.

The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key or Smart Key fob matches the code in the vehicles. Engine Immobilizer System Malfunction OBD II fault code B2799 is a manufacturer specific code that is defined by carmaker Toyota as Engine Immobilizer System Malfunction and is set when the PCM Powertrain Control Module detects. Standard on the Limiteds only.

Please see your Owners Manual for further details and important safety informati. The engine immobilizer is a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or bring a Smart Key fob into the vehicle the key transmits an electronic code to the vehicle.
