BASIC PRECAUTIONS
DTC numbers and ECU Data Lists of the entry and start system can be checked using the intelligent tester.
Check for DTCs using the following procedure. If any DTCs are output, diagnose those DTCs first.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Body / Entry & Start, Power Source Control or Starting Control / Trouble Codes.
If the engine switch cannot be turned on (IG), follow the procedure below to start communication between the intelligent tester and vehicle.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5 second intervals until communication between the intelligent tester and vehicle begins (the intelligent tester screen changes when communication begins).
If cancel is selected for the entry and start system customize setting, cancel the smart key cancel setting Click here.
DIAGRAM OF ENTRY AND START SYSTEM
MULTI CHANNEL FUNCTION
The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and door control receiver can operate on two different RF channels. When an electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought within an exterior detection area, key verification begins. If key verification fails due to wave interference, the channel will be switched and key verification will be performed again.
The multi channel system begins verification using the channel on which the last verification was successfully performed. When verification fails, the system switches to the other channel.
| *a | Exterior detection areas are created using LF waves (emitted from the vehicle at intervals of 0.25 seconds) to receive a response from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly. |
| *b | When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into an exterior detection area, it receives LF waves from the vehicle. Using RF waves, the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly responds to the vehicle. |
| *c | Upon receiving the response from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) activates the electrical key antennas (outside) one by one. Using LF waves, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) determines which exterior detection area the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in. |
| *d | The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly receives the LF waves from the vehicle and responds using RF waves. (The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) recognizes which exterior detection area the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in.) |
| *e | The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends registered key ID information to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly using LF waves. (Up to 4 key IDs can be registered.) |
| *f | The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly sends the key ID information using RF waves on both channels. When the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives it, verification completes. |
| *g | Wave interference (Channel switching) |
The multi channel system changes the channels when the RF band (*b, *d) is interrupted by wave interference.
DIAGNOSIS IN ACCORDANCE WITH USER OPERATION
Operation 1
| Operation | Turn the engine switch off and lock all the doors, then take the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly approximately 3 m (9.84 ft.) or more away from the vehicle. Tech Tips The detection area of each electrical key antenna (outside) is formed by emitting a periodic LF band request signal every 0.25 seconds. The detection area formed by each front door outside handle assembly (electrical key antenna) has a detection range of approximately 0.7 m (2.30 ft.). |
| Waveform or output value | Pulse generation (F63-12 (CLG1) - F65-11 (E)*) |

Operation 2
| Operation | Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly within 0.7 m (2.30 ft.) of the driver door. Tech Tips The system is in unlock standby mode when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in the detection area and the key ID code sent by the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly matches the key ID code stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). The door unlocks if the unlock sensor is touched by hand with the system in unlock standby mode. Signal transmission: Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) → Front door outside handle assembly (electrical key antenna) → Electrical key transmitter sub-assembly → Door control receiver → Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) → Main body ECU)) |
| Expected operation of the vehicle | The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly LED starts blinking. If it does not, any of the parts listed in the table below may be malfunctioning. |

| Front door outside handle assembly (unlock sensor) |
|
| Door lock/unlock mechanism | If a door cannot be locked/unlocked by operating the door control switch on the door in the cabin, the door lock mechanism is malfunctioning. |
Operation 4
| Operation | After getting into the vehicle while carrying the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, close the door and press the engine switch once with the shift lever in P*1 or N*2 while not depressing the brake pedal*1*2 or clutch pedal*3. |
| Expected operation of the vehicle |
If it does not, the parts listed below may be malfunctioning. Tech Tips When the engine switch is pressed, the indoor electrical key antenna forms a key detection area inside the vehicle and detects the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly in the cabin. The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly sends the ID code upon receiving a request signal and the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly LED illuminates for a short time. After pressing the engine switch, if the key ID code sent by the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly matches the key ID code stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), the ACC relay turns on and the smart warning light in the combination meter assembly blinks green slowly. Then after the power source mode has changed, L code and S code verification has been completed, the steering wheel will be unlocked and the immobiliser will be inactive. Then the Data List status of "Immobiliser" will be changed from "Set" to "Unset". Signal transmission: Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) → Indoor electrical key antenna → Electrical key transmitter sub-assembly → Door control receiver → Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) Tech Tips The interior detection area is formed when any of the following conditions are met:

VEHICLE BATTERY SAVING FUNCTION
When the entry and start system (for Entry Function) is operating, the vehicle performs key detection operations every 0.25 seconds. Therefore, if the vehicle left as is for a long period of time, the battery may become fully depleted. The following controls help reduce the rate at which the battery is depleted.
If the engine is not started for 5 days or more, periodic signal transmission from the electrical key antennas stops. However, the doors can still be unlocked by touching the unlock sensor of a front door outside handle assembly.
If the engine is not started for 14 days or more, the lock and unlock sensors of the front passenger side door outside handle assembly are disabled. Therefore, only the unlock sensor of the front door outside handle assembly of the driver side door can be used to unlock the doors.
If 10 minutes or more elapse while the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in an exterior detection area, the exterior electrical key antenna detecting the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly will stop operating.
To restore operation of the entry and start system, perform any of the following operations.
While carrying the key, touch the lock and unlock sensor of the front door outside handle assembly of the driver side door and perform a door lock or unlock operation.
Lock all doors with the back door lock operation.
Open the back door with the back door unlock operation.
Any door is opened and then closed.
Lock or unlock all doors with the wireless operation.
Insert the mechanical key into the door key cylinder of the driver side door and lock or unlock the doors.
