start a car’s engine, usually the ignition or the fuel supply. This is accomplished
by radio frequency identification between a transponder in the ignition key and a
device called a radio frequency reader in the steering column. When the key is
placed in the ignition, the transponder sends a signal with a unique identification
code to the reader, which relays it to a receiver in the vehicle’s computer control
module. If the code is correct, the computer allows the fuel supply and ignition
systems to operate and start the car. If the code is incorrect or absent, the
computer disables the system, and the car will be unable to start until the correct
key is placed in the ignition.
To prevent the car being used by unauthorized keys, the anti-theft key matching
function must be performed so that the immobilizer control system on the car
identifies and authorizes remote control keys to normally use the car.
When the ignition switch key, ignition switch, combined instrument panel, ECU,
BCM, or remote control battery is replaced, anti-theft key matching must be
performed.
6.8 Injector Coding
Write injector actual code or rewrite code in the ECU to the injector code of the
corresponding cylinder so as to more accurately control or correct cylinder
injection quantity.
After the ECU or injector is replaced, injector code of each cylinder must be
confirmed or re-coded so that the cylinder can better identify injectors to
accurately control fuel injection.
6.9 Battery Maintenance System Reset
This function enables you to perform a resetting operation on the monitoring unit
of vehicle battery, in which the original low battery fault information will be
cleared and battery matching will be done.
Battery matching must be performed in the following cases:
a) Main battery is replaced. Battery matching must be performed to clear
original low battery information and prevent the related control module from
detecting false information. If the related control module detects false
information, it will invalidate some electric auxiliary functions, such as
automatic start & stop function, sunroof without one-key trigger function,
power window without automatic function.
b) Battery monitoring sensor. Battery matching is performed to re-match the
control module and motoring sensor to detect battery power usage more
