Fuel System/Engine Management
Immobiliser System
System Description
The Tiger 800 and Tiger 800XC models are fitted with an
electronic immobiliser system to help protect against theft.
This system has to be paired with the ECM and the
ignition key which contains a transponder chip. If all the
components are correctly paired, the immobiliser will
allow the engine to start. The Triumph diagnostic tool is
the only way these components can be paired.
In addition, the system has an on-board diagnostic
function. This ensures that, should a malfunction occur in
the immobiliser system, a malfunction code is stored in
the immobiliser/tyre pressure monitoring system <TPMS>
control modules memory. This stored data can then be
recovered using the Triumph diagnostic tool (see page
10-28).
System Components and Operation
Transponder chip
- Situated inside the ignition
key. The chip is activated by the antenna coil
when the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position.
Antenna coil
- Situated around the ignition
switch. When the ignition switch is turned to
the ON position, and the transponder chip is
activated, the signal from the chip is sent to the
immobiliser/TPMS control module.
lmmobiliser/TPMS Control Module
Situated under the headstock. This control
module communicates with the transponder
chip in the key and the ECM and will only allow
the engine to start if a matching signal is
received.
Alarm/immobiliser warning indicator
light
-
Situated in the instrument pack. The
light will flash on and off for 24 hours to show
that the engine immobiliser is on. When the
ignition switch is turned to the ON position the
immobiliser and the indicator light will be off. If
the indicator light remains on it indicates that
the immobiliser has a malfunction that requires
investigation. If an accessory alarm is fitted, the
immobiliser indicator light will only illuminate
when the conditions described in the accessory
alarm instructions are met.
Keys
When the motorcycle is delivered from the factory it is
supplied with two keys. Keys can be deleted or added to
the immobiliser system using the Triumph diagnostic tool.
A maximum of four keys can be added to the system.
To ensure the immobiliser system functions correctly note
the following:
Do not put any magnetic materials on the same
key ring as the motorcycle key;
Do not put any other ignition key with a
transponder chip fitted near the motorcycle key
when in use;
•
Do not modify the immobiliser system;
Do not submerge the key in water or any other
fluid;
Do not drop or strike the key against hard
material.
Diagnostics
To fully diagnose the immobiliser system it is necessary to
check for fault codes in the immobiliser/TP.MS control
module using the Triumph diagnostic tool (see page
10-28>.
Further Diagnosis
The tables that start on page
10-41,
if used correctly, help
to pinpoint a fault in the system once a diagnostic trouble
code has been stored.
