Immobiliser
The Immobiliser (or Engine Immobiliser) is an inbuilt security system that prevents your car from starting without a key. It works by matching the digital code on the key or fob to the unique code contained in your vehicle's ECU. When more info are in sync, the ECU will trigger the fuel system and ignition. If the codes do not match, your car will not start when the fuel pump or ignition circuit is blocked.
The Immobiliser is effective in preventing thieves from using hot wires or igniting your vehicle however, it's not foolproof. Criminals with a strong will can beat it. This is why it's essential to take other, more sensible security measures in place, including keeping valuables out of sight and not leaving them in the vehicle when you're not in it.
Another option for security is to make use of a faraday pouch that will block the signal between the key fob and the car's electronics and make it more difficult for criminals to intercept and replicate the signal. Suzuki's latest models come with another security measure that requires that the key be placed near the ignition when it is turned on.
Despite these measures however, modern immobilisers remain vulnerable to attacks by skilled criminals. In one study, Jaap Bokslag, a researcher from the University of Amsterdam, attempted to rob three vehicles of a popular brand and then crack the immobiliser in just six minutes by using known weaknesses.
Security System
Suzuki's are amongst the most popular automobiles on Australian roads and they come with an inbuilt immobiliser to stop them from being hot wired. Whenever you use the key to start your vehicle, it has an internal transponder chip - a little smaller than the PS1 coin - that sends an unique code to the vehicles electronic control unit (ECU). If the ECU is not receiving this code, when you insert the ignition key into the barrel, your car will not start.
Suzuki dealers installed two different dealer-installed system up to the year 1996. The first system was manufactured by Advance Security. The original keyfob featured the Suzuki logo on the front, and the FCC ID B23AT54 on the back. The original keyfob has no longer been available, but Remotes Unlimited still offers a 2-button Hellfire Remote (also made by Advance Security).
In the year 2000, most new Suzukis will come equipped with a factory key-lock mechanism that has a built in immobiliser. The key is fitted with tiny chips that act as transponder. It is concealed under the cap made of plastic. The chip contains a sophisticated code that the vehicle's ECU searches for when you turn the key in the ignition barrel. If the chip on the new key does not match the one in your ECU, the car will not start. The problem can be quite difficult to fix, but our Auckland auto locksmiths know how to do it quickly and cheaply.
Keys
Most Suzukis are equipped with a key that contains a microchip (transponder chip) which is less than a coin that you keep in your pocket. When you insert the key into the ignition barrel of your car and turn it on, the ECU detects the code on the chip. If it doesn't match, the vehicle will not start. If you lose your key and don't have a spare in your possession, you will need an auto locksmith who has the appropriate equipment to replace it.
It is easy to program Suzuki transponder key fobs and smart keys. But if you have lost all your keys, you will have to visit your dealer or a locksmith equipped with a diagnostic device since they will have to program the replacement to your vehicle. Suzuki dealers will take anywhere from one to a week to complete this process. Auto locksmiths can code keys quicker and less expensive because they are equipped with the equipment. This is not the case for non-transponder keys that do not require the use of coding.
