DESCRIPTION
If the entry lock and unlock functions do not operate for the front passenger door only, the request code may not be being transmitted from the front passenger door or the front door outside handle assembly (for front passenger door) (touch sensor) may be malfunctioning. If the entry functions for other doors operate properly, communication between the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and door control receiver is normal. In this case, there may be a problem with request code transmission (communication between the certification ECU [smart key ECU assembly] and front door outside handle assembly [for front passenger door] [front passenger door electrical key antenna]), or there may be wave interference.
Tech Tips
If the cause of the malfunction is stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), the following table is helpful in checking whether or not the malfunction was caused by wave interference.
| Parameter Name | Cause of Problem and Countermeasure |
|---|---|
| Lock / Key RF Signal Interference | When entry lock operation was performed, the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly could not be confirmed due to wave interference. If the cause of the malfunction has not been stored but the car has been moved and an entry lock operation has been successfully performed, the possibility of wave interference is high. |
| Unlock / Key RF Signal Interference | When entry unlock operation was performed, the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly could not be confirmed due to wave interference. If the cause of the malfunction has not been stored but the car has been moved and an entry unlock operation has been successfully performed, the possibility of wave interference is high. |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
The entry and start system (for Entry Function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting Click here. Troubleshoot the entry and start system (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
When using the GTS with the engine switch off to troubleshoot:
Connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5-second intervals until communication between the GTS and vehicle begins.
Check that there are no electrical key transmitter sub-assemblies in the vehicle.
Before performing the inspection, check that DTC B1242 (wireless door lock control) is not output Click here.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the entry and start system (for Entry Function) precaution Click here.
After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing the "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".
PROCEDURE
CHECK POWER DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM
When the door control switch on the multiplex network master switch assembly is operated, check that the doors unlock and lock according to the switch operation Click here.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT
| *A | for LHD |
| *B | for RHD |
| *a | Approximately 0.3 m (0.984 ft.) |
Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly approximately 0.3 m (0.984 ft.) from the front door outside handle assembly (for front passenger door) and perform an entry function check Click here.
Note
If the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the door handle, communication may not be possible.
Tech Tips
If the inspection result is that the problem only occurs in certain locations or at certain times of day, the possibility of wave interference is high. Also, added vehicle components may cause wave interference. If installed, remove them and perform the operation check.
