KEY REMINDER WARNING SYSTEM Key Reminder Buzzer does not Sound

DESCRIPTION

The key reminder warning buzzer sounds when the driver side door is opened while the ignition switch is off or ACC. The key reminder warning buzzer is activated when the main body ECU sends a unlock warning switch signal and driver side courtesy light switch signal to the combination meter.

Tech Tips

Since the key reminder warning system has functions that use CAN communication, first confirm that there is no malfunction in the communication system by inspecting CAN communication in accordance with the "How to Proceed with Troubleshooting" procedures. Then, conduct the following inspection procedure.
