Module Neutralisation

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Confirm 2

Read PIN Special Function

With the use of this special function you are able to read the PIN Code of Hyundai/KIA vehicle. The software works in wizard mode, in other words, it is a guided function and there are informative messages on what needs to be done. Once you press and hold the START button the procedure begins and it guides you trough the process.

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Function

There are 3 options how to read the PIN:

  1. Read PIN code from vehicle
    This option is used when there are no available keys for the car.

  2. Read PIN code from working key (requires PROTAG programmer)
    This option is used whenever there is a working blade key with DST80 transponder or HITAG2 for the vehicle. The software lets you know when the PROTAG needs to be connected.

  3. Calculate PIN code from VIN (for vehicles manufactured until 09/2007)

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Function 1

Learn Keys Special Function

This special function lets you program mechanical and smart keys to Hyundai vehicles. It is a wizard function, which guides you trough the process and provides informative messages on what needs to be done

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Learn Keys

Following the on screen directions, procedure comes to the point where PIN code is needed. If the PIN is already known, there is an option to manually input it, if not, the procedure would continue with the PIN code reading. There are also two options for that – read it from the vehicle, or read it with the use of a working key and a PROTAG programmer, just as in the Read PIN code special function.

Once the PIN code is present, the wizard function will guide you trough the whole procedure until it is finished.
Key learning serves as module synchronization when a used module is neutralised or new modules are installed in the car.

Read PIN from working key Special Function

This special function is another guided function, dedicated to reading the PIN code from a working mechanical or smart key of Hyundai/Kia for vehicles with the following transponder types:
HITAG 3 smart and mechanical key (procedure may take up to 70 min)
HITAG AES smart and mechanical key (procedure may take up to 70 min)
DST AES mechanical key
DST 80 mechanical key
HITAG 2 mechanical key (TA31 required)
In order to use this special function, HK011 license is required.
Here are the steps of the procedure:

  1. Select “Read PIN from working key” from the menu
  2. Press “Start”
  3. Turn IGN ON and press “Next”
  4. Turn IGN OFF
  5. Connect your PROTAG and press “OK” or “Cancel” to go back
  6. Insert the working key in the PROTAG programmer (for HITAG 3 and HITAG AES the procedure may take up tp 70 min)
  7. Finish

Program Remotes Special Function

This special function is another guided function, dedicated to saving transmitter codes for vehicles equipped with mechanical keys. In other words, it lets you program the remote of a vehicle equipped with a mechanical key, after the key learning procedure is complete, because the remote for mechanical keys is not automatically programmed with the key learning.

Neutralization Special Function

When module neutralization is already chosen, you would have to pick the desired option. There are currently two neutralization methods, which are explained below.

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Special
Function

9.1 Standard Neutralization
The Hyundai Online software is able to do module neutralization, which is very useful functionality when it comes to module exchange and adaptation. In order for a second hand (donor) module to be adapted to a car, it needs to be neutralized. Modules that can be neutralized with the use of Abrites Online software for Hyundai are ECU, immobilizer, and smart system. HK009 license is required.

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - Standard
Neutralization

The Neutralization function allows the use of second-hand modules in Hyundai/Kia vehicles.
For vehicles with a smart key:
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the smart system
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the ECU
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the ESCL
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the PDM (for vehicles equipped with PDM)
For vehicles with a mechanical key:
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the immobilizer
neutralization (allowing adaptation in other vehicles) of the Smart module (for vehicles that are equipped with one)
Neutralization is done in the vehicle that the module belongs to, because for ECU neutralization the PIN code is required. If a second hand ECU is purchased off the Internet, the task would be more difficult. Our new development (HK010 special function) comes very handy in such cases. Please check the next page for details.
9.2 Best prictices and advise:
The following sequence of neutralization of modules needs to be followed! First you neutralize all of the modules you are changing except the SMART SYSTEM, and then neutralize the SMART SYSTEM with a new procedure. (or in the case of mechanical key cars – the Immobilizer). If the vehicle is left with neutralized smart system, but the rest of the modules are not neutralized, this might cause a problem for the vehicle.
Another very important thing is that the state of the module you are working with can be checked by viewing the live data values or from the process of neutralization.
When working in a donor car you have to know the pin code of the donor. If you od not know it, you can read it using the key programming function.
If workinfg on bench (HK010) you do not need the pin, but there are risks for the unit.
If the key comes from the same car you can re-program it and reuse it.
9.3 ECU Neutralization on bench (HK010)
ECU Neutralization without the need of PIN code. It requires the HK010 license.
Our new development for Hyundai/KIA lets you neutralize an ECU with bench connection without the need of PIN code (The PIN code will be required for the adaptation only). This function works for all ECUs (excluding those with integrated immobilizer). HK010 license is required.
In case the immobilizer is integrated in the ECU, PIN code needs to be read and this is done with the other neutralization method explained above.

HK012 ABRITES Diagnostics for Hyundai KIA - ECU

9.3.1 Wiring
There are two connection methods – one is using the DS box and the other is direct connection to the ECU, without the use of DS box. An option for the older version of DSbox is also included. The software gives warning messages to remind you to check the connections, and where connection diagrams can be found.
9.3.1.1 Wiring with ZN051 DS Box
When using ZN051 for connection to the ECU, the following connections should be made:
CB401 Yellow cable (B+) < – > B+ of the ECU
CB401 Orange cable (IGN) < – > IGN of the ECU
CB401 Black cable (GND) < – > GND of the ECU
K7 socket (green cable from the ZN051 set) <-> K-Line of the ECU (also called Data signal cable)
9.3.1.2 Wiring without ZN051 DS Box
12V (external power supply) < – > B+ of the ECU as well as the AVDI (pin 17 of the DB25 or pin 16 of the CB100 OBD cable)
12V (external power supply) < – > key switch < – > IGN of the ECU (a key switch should be connected between 12V power supply and IGN pin of the ECU)
GND (external power supply) < – > GND of the ECU and GND as well as the AVDI(pin 5 of the DB25 or pin 6 of the CB100 OBD cable). K-Line of the AVDI (PIN 7) < – > K-Line of the ECU(also called Data signal cable)
A key switch (sometimes called a lock switch) is a key-operated switch. Key switches are used in situations where access needs to be restricted to the switch’s functions.

Reset of Used Keys

With the new 34.3 software version, you will be able to reset used keys, programmed to Hyundai/KIA vehicles.
Supported Transponder Types:
• • HITAG 3
• • HITAG AES
• • DST AES
• • DST 80
The procedure is safe and user-friendly. It may take up to 70 min for HITAG 3 and HITAG AES, and about a minute for DST AES and DST 80. After that, you will be able to reprogram the key and use it on another vehicle.
This functionality is accessible for all users with the HK011 PIN and Key Manager license and an active AMS. ZN002 or ZN003 ProTag is also required.
It is recomended that the procedure is executed in the vehicle as suggested in the main screen. The software is guided and  you justneed to follow the on- screen messages.
Steps:

  1. From the main screen in the diagnostic menu select “Used Key Functions”
  2. Select “Reset Used Key”
  3. Follow the instructions provided on the screen
    • ProTag Programmer is required
    • Procedure may take up to 70 min for HITAG 3 or HITAG AES transponder types.
    • Key needs to be inserted in the programmer when the software suggests is.

Below you can see screenshots from the procedure – it is a wizard (guided) software and you only need to follow the instructions on the screen:
