Pero ¿cuando un inmovilizador se bloquea es necesario cambiarlo?. Sugiero ir a Indumotora (KIA) y hablar con el Jefe del Servicio Técnico. Debe haber una forma de resetear el inmovilizador. Lo otro es que se haya dañado y ahí se pone más dificil, pero igual que ante una operación quirúrgica, consultar una segunda opinión en forma telefónica o en persona en Santiago.
Esta información la obtuve de un foro KIA en Canadá. De acuerdo a lo señaldo, el PIN lo tiene el importador y es un número de 6 dígitos
"All Kia Vehicles have an immobilizer password; it is a six digit PIN number. This PIN number is held with Kia Canada INC secure database, it can not be accessed by anyone except by Kia employees for security reasons. The PIN number can not be changed. This is a PIN code that is in the immobilizer system and in you’re key. Whenever you insert your ignition key into the ignition switch and turn it to ON, it checks, determines and verifies if the ignition key is valid or not. If the key PIN code does not match the code of the immobilizer system the engine of your vehicle will not start. The Limp Home Procedures password is “2345” it is used when the immobilizer system fails. If the limp home procedure does not work, you will need to get the vehicle to a KIA dealer. and also can not be changed. This procedure is for when you turn the ignition switch to the ON position, if the immobilizer indicator (in the dash) goes off after blinking 5 times and does not stay on. Your transponder is built into the ignition key. is out of order. This is when you will need the limp home password which is “2345”. "
