# Service bulletin TT 96\-12\-07

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

- Published by NHTSA: 2019\-04\-01

## NHTSA's summary

Tech Tips \(Equipped With KESSY ? Key Adaptation Tip\): When adapting keys on a vehicle equipped with KESSY, it is recommended to remove the immobilizer reader coil from behind round cover on steering column trim and insert key inside the reader coil. The steering column trim does not need to be completely removed to access reader coil. For vehicles with the Start/Stop button on the steering column, the Start/Stop button assembly can be removed from column trim without disassembling trim. Start/Stop button connector must be disconnected to allow reader coil to be removed from around button assembly. Start/Stop button should be reconnected during key adaptation. This document provides photo examples of the procedure.
