It is not visible on diagnostic systems, there are no LED indicators, and it does not communicate with the engine via the OBD port. It communicates in silence through the CAN data loop.

The system won't allow the vehicle to start until it is given an input PIN number that is specified by the user. This code is entered using buttons on the steering wheel, door panels, or centre console. This is a safer way to safeguard the car since it doesn't require an additional remote control or key fob.
