ENTRY AND START SYSTEM(for Entry Function) OPERATION CHECK


  1. CHECK ENTRY AND START SYSTEM (for Entry Function) OPERATION

    Note

    Make sure that the entry and start system (for entry function) has not been canceled before performing this inspection.


    1. Check the entry unlock function (driver side door, front passenger side door).


      1. Perform a wireless lock operation to lock all the doors, touch the unlock sensor built into the backside of the front door outside handle assembly of the driver side door while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that all the doors unlock.

        Tech Tips

        To perform a wireless lock operation, press the lock switch of the electrical key transmitter while standing near the front door outside handle assembly.

        Inspect the entry unlock detection area. Hold the electrical key transmitter at the same height as the front door outside handle assembly (approximately 0.8 m (2.62 ft.) from the ground) and approximately 0.7 m (2.30 ft.) from the vehicle as shown in the illustration and check that the LED (red) of the electrical key transmitter blinks.

        Tech Tips

        The outside mirror illumination turns on.

      3. With the system in unlock standby mode, hold the front door outside handle assembly and check that all the doors unlock.

        Tech Tips


        • The system is in unlock standby mode when the electrical key transmitter is in the detection area and the key ID code sent by the key matches the key ID code stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

        • Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the front door outside handle assembly.

        • Inspect the front passenger side door using the same procedure.

        *1 Unlock Sensor (Backside)

        Check the unlock response sensitivity. With the system in unlock standby mode, touch the area shown in the illustration and check that the door unlocks.

        Note

        If the sensor is touched too quickly or released too slowly, the sensor may not react and the door will not unlock.

    2. Check the entry lock function (driver side door, front passenger side door).

      Note

      If the electrical key transmitter is in the vehicle but outside the detection area (on the instrument panel, in the glove box, on the floor) and a door lock operation is performed, the key lock-in prevention function will not operate and the electrical key transmitter will be locked inside the vehicle.

        *1 Lock Sensor

        Inspect the entry lock operating range. Hold the electrical key transmitter approximately 0.1 m (0.33 ft.) below the bottom edge of the door glass (approximately 0.8 m (2.62 ft.) from the ground) and approximately 0.3 m (0.98 ft.) from the vehicle as shown in the illustration, touch the lock sensor and check that all the doors lock.

        Tech Tips


        • If the door does not lock when you touch the lock sensor, touch the lock sensor with your palm.

        • As communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the front door outside handle assembly, the door may not lock if the lock sensor is touched with the same hand that is holding the electrical key transmitter, etc.

        • If the key lock-in prevention function buzzer sounds, electric waves from the indoor electrical key antenna may be leaking from the vehicle.

        • Inspect the front passenger side door using the same procedure.

    3. Check the entry back door unlock function.

        Tech Tips


        • Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the rear bumper.

        • If the key lock-in prevention function buzzer sounds, electric waves from the indoor electrical key antenna assembly may be leaking from the vehicle.

    5. Check the entry ignition function (for CVT).


      1. With the engine switch off, move the shift lever to P, depress the brake pedal while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that the entry key indicator light in the combination meter assembly illuminates green. Then, with the entry key indicator light in the combination meter assembly illuminates green, press the engine switch and check that the engine starts.

      2. With the brake pedal released and the engine switch off, press the engine switch while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that the power source mode changes as follows: off → on (ACC) → on (IG) → off. However, if the shift lever is in any position other than P while the engine switch is on (IG), the power source mode will not change to off, but to on (ACC).

      3. Stop the vehicle, press the engine switch and check that the power source mode changes to off (the engine stops and all electrical systems are off). However, if the shift lever is in any position other than P, even if the engine switch is pressed while the vehicle is stationary, the power source mode will not change to off, but to on (ACC). Move the shift lever to P, open the door and check that the steering lock operates.
