Best Answer

SKIM is an acronym for Sentry Key Immobilizer Module. It is Chrysler's design for a factory anti-theft system. In a vehicle equipped with a SKIM system, the engine will not start without the proper key that has been programmed to the SKIM, which transmits the information to the PCM (Powertrain Control Module).
