FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 
System Components 
The  Suzuki Gasoline immobilization  system consists of the immobilizer  antenna, a  trans-
ponder and the Engine control unit. The immobilizer antenna is located on  the vehicle’s 
ignition lock. The transponder is located within the ignition key. The transponder is magneti-
cally coupled to the immobilizer antenna. The immobilizer antenna is connected to vehicle 
power and to vehicle ground via a wiring harness and to the Engine control unit via serial 
interface. 
For the illumination, a side LED which is connected to a light pipe is used. The LED is pow-
ered externally via two resistors. 
System Operation 
This immobilizer system is a passive immobilization system. The immobilizer antenna uses a 
magnetic couple to read the transponder’s identification code. The immobilizer compares the 
identification code received from the transponder via immobilizer antenna with identification 
codes stored in its non-volatile memory. If the identification code from the transponder 
matches one of the identification codes stored in memory, the immobilizer sends a “Valid 
Key” message to the Engine Management System controller.  If there is no match, the im-
mobilizer sends an “Invalid Key” message to the Engine Management System controller. 
This causes the Engine Management System to turn off the engine.

Variants 
type designation remarks 
5WK49182 immobilizer antenna with LED assembled 
5WK49181 immobilizer antenna without LED assembled 
Both variants use the same pcb, schematic and layout. They differ only in the assem-
bly of the illumination LED ring which does NOT influence the RF characteristics of 
the immobilizer.
