Immobiliser The immobiliser system, also known as the anti-theft system, checks to make sure the key used to start the car is the right one. If it's not, the system blocks a number of different actions to stop the car from beginning. It is best to let a professional handle any problems with the immobilizer. The 04 Rodeo/Axiom immobilizer utilizes near field communication (NFC) which is made up of microchips that are embedded within the key and a small antenna hidden inside the key's plastic. The NFC chip in the key transmits a signal encrypted to the Ignition Switch once the key is within 1.5 inch of the switch. If the signal is valid, the Ignition Switch will permit the engine to be cranked and then started. If the Ignition switch detects that the key used is not the correct one, it will disable the ignition coil, the fuel pump and possibly injectors. It also disables the power steering which makes it difficult for a possible car burglar. There are a few reasons why the immobiliser may be activated. The most common reason is a bad battery in the key. A key that needs to be reprogrammed is another possibility. This is difficult and requires a special diagnostic device. If the chip inside the key is damaged, it will not be able to send an appropriate signal to the Ignition Switch. In this situation, you'll need to get an alternate key. You can go to a dealership or a locksmith, but they'll cost you a significant amount of money.
