INSPECT DOOR CONTROL TRANSMITTER MODULE SET
Inspect the operation of the transmitter.
Note
When replacing the transmitter battery, before starting work, remove static electricity that has built up in the body by touching, for example, the vehicle to prevent the door control transmitter module set from being damaged.
Remove the battery (lithium battery: CR2016) from the transmitter Click here.
Install a new or normal battery (lithium battery: CR2016).
Tech Tips
When a new or normal battery is not available, first connect 2 new 1.5 V batteries in series. Then connect leads to the batteries and apply 3 V to the transmitter, as shown in the illustration.
From outside the vehicle approximately 1 m (3.28 ft), test the transmitter by pointing its key plate at the vehicle and pressing a transmitter switch.

The operational area differs depending on the user, the way the transmitter is held and the location.
The weak electric waves from the transmitter may be affected if the area has strong electric waves or noise. The transmitter operational area may be reduced or the transmitter may not function.
Inspect the battery capacity.
Note
When replacing the transmitter battery, before starting work, remove static electricity that has built up in the body by touching, for example, the vehicle to prevent the door control transmitter module set from being damaged.
Remove the battery from the electrical key transmitter that does not operate Click here.
Attach a lead wire (0.6 mm (0.0236 in.) in diameter or less including wire sheath) with tape or equivalent to the negative terminal.
Note
Do not wrap the lead wire around a terminal, wedge it between the terminals or solder it. A terminal may be deformed or damaged, and the battery will not be able to be installed correctly.
Carefully extend the lead wire out from the position shown in the illustration and install the previously removed transmitter battery.
