DTC P0633

Diagnostic Instructions
    • Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
    • Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
    • Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor

DTC P0633: Immobiliser Key Not Programmed

Circuit/System Description

When learning the immobiliser data, as well as the challenge and response sequence, the engine control module (ECM) is placed in learn mode. DTC P0633 will set automatically as an indicator that the system is in learn mode and not as a fault indicator. Once the immobiliser data and challenge/response are learned, learn mode will be exited when the engine is successfully started. If the ECM does not exit learn mode, DTC P0633 will remain current and indicate a fault.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The ECM is in learn mode.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0633 will set any time the ECM enters learn mode.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The security indicator in the instrument cluster will illuminate.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
    • A current DTC P0633 will be cleared upon a successful engine start after exit of learn mode.
    • A history DTC will be cleared after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles or when a scan tool is used to clear DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

The key referenced in the DTC descriptor does not refer to the vehicle key. In this case, key is referring to the challenge response.

Circuit/System Verification

Note: 

   • Because of normal system communications between the BCM and ECM, any immobiliser DTCs set in the BCM must be diagnosed prior to the diagnosis immobiliser DTCs set in the ECM.
   • DTC P0633 will clear upon a successful engine start. Any malfunction that will cause a no-start condition will prevent DTC P0633 from clearing. Prior to diagnosing DTC P0633, ensure that all power mode and engine control systems are operating properly and all conditions that may cause a no-start have been corrected.

  1. Perform the ECM immobiliser learn using the Engine Control Module IMMO Learn in SPS. Refer to Immobiliser System Component Programming .
  2. Verify the ECM successfully completes the learn procedure and the vehicle starts.
    3. [ARW-LISTFAIL]

  3. If the ECM does not successfully learn or the engine does not start

    Replace the K20 ECM.

    4. [/ARW-LISTFAIL][ARW-LISTPASS]

  4. If the vehicle starts

    5. [/ARW-LISTPASS]
  5. All OK

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
