Engine code p1610 - Eclipse Mitsubishi Cars & Trucks

Hello. Diagnostic code P1611 means you have low voltage at your relay box; code P1610 means someone kept starting that car 5+ times. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

DTC P1610 Lost Communications with Body Multiple Control (BCM) System
Circuit Description
The PCM uses the serial data circuit to communicate with various other devices and systems in the vehicle. The PCM ensures that communication remains established by monitoring the serial data circuit for state of health messages from the other devices using the circuit. If the PCM detects a loss of the state of health serial data message from the Body Function Controller (BFC), DTC P1610 will be set.

not start, so, car cranks, ok and will not start, , RIGHT?
That code is from a real scan tool???????
which engine is there, of the 5 or so?
1.2 L I4 (petrol)
1.3 L M13A I4 (petrol)
1.5 L M15A I4 (petrol)
1.6 L M16A I4 (petrol)
1.3 L I4 (diesel)
in what country is car, (1million posts here and not one ever said that)
and varies by guess what?, COUNTRY.

P1610 (is power train code =p)
i have no books on non USA cars. nor access to them
so not saying COUNTRY , forces me to guess engine and codes.
so i did what you failed to do , i searched on FIXya forum
and found this.
my best guess , would be... as per below. (no real FSM)
I see only 1 , a Reno. wrong car, but my online source shows no usa swift data at all. 2011
P1610 is a resulting DTC from the "LOCK MODE" condition which is set for various NATS malfunctions or an improper key being used. It prevents the car from starting (for some period of time, even if the key issue is rectified).To reset a NATS lock mode, a proper key must be cycled three times again to get the car to start
we only have 2001

sorry

all of my research keeps coming back to p1610 for the P16ff Code but I am not sure.
The code P1610 is a problem with the NATS, or better known as system of vehicle immobilizer. And this arose out of the following:
-are using a q-key is not registered or not transmitting the code
- BCM or ECM are evil, and
now is in "locked mode"
you can do something quick:
1. Confirms the code q yields
2. EXIT THE LOCKED MODE. If the code is p1610 continues with the following with a copy of the vehicle key:
(1) -Place the switch to OFF
(2) -Place the switch in ON with the key registered(do not start the engine). Wait 5 seconds
(3) -Returns the switch to the off position. Wait 5 seconds
(4) -Repeat step 2 and 3 two more times (being a total of 3 times) (
5) -Starts the engine
with this test and write us if t worked. If this is not the case there will be q enter to detail by checking with the diagnostic charts and other things.
The other code does not exist or does not comply with the structure of a code

I had both p1610 and p1612 codes pop up today on me when my car decided to just die. i did a lot of trouble shooting and it led me to removing the negative battery terminal which resets the system and bam, car started right up.

P1610=Lock Mode--1 turn ignition switch OFF 2 turn ignition switch ON with registered key. (Do not start engine.) Wait 5 seconds. 3 Return the key to off position. 4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 twice ( total of tree cycles). 5 Start the engine. Does engine start ?? Yes...System is OK. Now system is escaped from LOCK MODE...if no start...Go to 3
P1612 is a lot of testing.......get back to me....
