FIAT CODE
The Fiat Code system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
Operation
Each time the vehicle is started by
turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat
Code system control unit sends a
recognition code to the Powertrain
Control Module to deactivate the
immobiliser.
The code is sent only if the Fiat Code
system control unit has acknowledged
the code received from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Fiat Code system
deactivates the functions of the
Powertrain Control Module.
Irregular operation
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
symbol is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter).
This condition leads to the engine
switching off after 2 seconds. In this
case, bring the ignition device to STOP
and then to MAR; if it is still blocked, try
with the other keys provided. If it is still
not possible to start the engine, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
Activation of warning light while
driving
If the symbol is displayed while
driving, this means that the system is
running a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a
voltage drop).
If the display persists, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
