16-70 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Immobilizer System (Equipped Models)
This motorcycle is equipped with an immobilizer system to protect the motorcycle from theft. This system provides a theft proof device by means of matching a code between the inbuilt key transponder and ECU. If the code does not match, ignition system, injectors, subthrottle valve actuator and exhaust butterfly valve actuator will not operate and the engine will not start.
Abstract
•Do not keep more than one immobilizer key of any system on a key ring. Jamming of the key code signal may occur and the operation of the system may be affected.
•The warning indicator light (LED) will flash for a period of 24 hours once the ignition switch has been switched off and the key removed. This flashing can be set to on or off as desired by holding the MODE and RESET buttons down for 2 seconds within 20 seconds of switching the ignition off.
•If all coded keys (master key and user keys) are lost the ECU and ignition switch will have to be replaced.
•The immobilizer system can not function until the master key code is registered in the ECU.
•A total of six keys can be registered in the ECU at any one time (one master key and five user keys).
•If the master key is lost it is not possible to register new user keys.
Operational Cautions
1.Do not put two keys of any immobilizer system on the same key ring.
2.Do not submerge any key in water.
3.Do not expose any key to excessively high temperature.
4.Do not place any key close to magnet.
5.Do not place a heavy item on any key.
6.Do not grind any key or alter its shape.
7.Do not disassemble the plastic part of any key.
8.Do not drop the key and/or apply any shocks to the key.
9.When a user key is lost, the user should go to his dealer to invalidate the lost key registration in the ECU.
10.When the master key is lost, the user should go to his dealer and have a new ECU installed and register a new master key and user keys.
NOTE
○No.9 and 10 are strongly recommended to the customer to ensure security of the motorcycle.
Key Registration
Case 1: When the user key has been lost or additional spare user key is required.
•Prepare a new spare user key.
•Cut the key in accordance with the shape of the current user key.
•Remove the front seat (see Front Seat Removal in the Frame chapter).
•Disconnect the immobilizer/Kawasaki diagnostic system connector [A].
•Connect the key registration unit [A].

User Key Collation Error
•The user key 1 is successfully registered in the ECU. ○The warning indicator light (LED) and immobilizer warning
symbol [A] blinks 2 times and stops for 1 second and then repeats this cycle.
•Turn the user key 1 OFF and remove the user key 1. ○The warning indicator light (LED) [A] blinks to display the
registration mode.
NOTE
○Turn off the ignition switch and wait for the period of 15 seconds or more. The registration mode automatically finishes and the warning indicator light (LED) will switch off.
○This procedure registered the master key and one user key.
○Continue with the procedure to register the second and later keys before the 15 seconds period has elapsed.
•Insert the user key 2 to the ignition switch and turn it ON.

•The warning indicator light (LED) goes off [A].
•Remove the key registration unit and connect the immobilizer/Kawasaki diagnostic system connector.
NOTE
○Turn the ignition switch ON with the registered user key. ○Check that the engine can be started using all regis-
tered user keys.

○These parts are available as a set. Prepare the current master key [C].
•Remove:
Ignition Switch and Immobilizer Antenna (see Immobilizer System Parts Replacement)
Front Seat (see Front Seat Removal in the Frame chapter)
•Disconnect the immobilizer/Kawasaki diagnostic system connector [A].
•Connect the key registration unit [A].
Special Tool - Key Registration Unit: 57001-1582
•Connect:
New Ignition Switch Lead Connector [A] Immobilizer Antenna Lead Connector [B]
•Put the current master key [A] at the antenna [B].
NOTE
○Keep the antenna more than 15 cm (5.9 in.) from the ignition switch.
•Insert the new user key 1 [C] to the new ignition switch [D] and turn it ON.

•Turn OFF and remove user key 1.
○The warning indicator light (LED) [A] blinks to display the registration mode.
NOTE
○Turn off the ignition switch and wait for the period more than 15 seconds. The registration mode automatically ends and warning indicator light (LED) goes off.
○This procedure has , registered the master key and one user key.
○Continue the procedure to program the second and later keys.
•Insert the user key 2 to the ignition switch and turn it ON.
