DESCRIPTION
If code verification cannot be performed in the vehicle interior, there may be problems with the communication between the vehicle (indoor electrical key oscillator (front floor) or (rear floor)) and electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, or the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) may be malfunctioning. When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the vehicle, verification of the key ID code transmitted from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and the key ID code stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is performed. If verification cannot be performed or the codes do not match, the engine switch cannot be turned on (IG) and the engine cannot be started.
When a door is unlocked and the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the vehicle, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) activates the indoor electrical key oscillator which transmits radio waves to detect the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly. If the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly recognizes that it is in the detection area, it responds with the key ID code. This information is received by the door control receiver and then sent to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When using the GTS with the vehicle engine switch off, connect the GTS to the vehicle and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.
The entry and start system (for Entry Function) uses a LIN communication system and 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 system is functioning properly.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the entry and start system (for Entry Function) Click here.
Indoor electrical key oscillator has an antenna coil between each two CLG terminals.
Tech Tips
Check that the entry cancel function, which is one of the customizing settings of the entry and start system, is not set Click here.
PROCEDURE
CHECK ENTRY AND START SYSTEM (FOR ENTRY FUNCTION)
Check that the entry lock and unlock functions operate for each door Click here.

CHECK ENTRY AND START SYSTEM (FOR START FUNCTION)
Remove the battery of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly Click here.

| *2 | Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-assembly (w/o Panic Switch) |
| *3 | Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-assembly (w/ Panic Switch) |

| *A | Type A |
| *B | Type B |
With the brake pedal*1 or clutch pedal*2 depressed, hold the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the engine switch as shown in the illustration.
*1: for Automatic Transmission
*2: for Manual Transmission
When operating the engine switch, check whether the engine starts.
Tech Tips
When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly cannot be verified even though it is inside the detection area, the engine start check can be performed by removing the transmitter battery from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and holding the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the engine switch.
If the engine cannot be started when performing this inspection, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU) or ID code box*1 may be malfunctioning.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT
Install the battery to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly Click here.
Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the indoor electrical key oscillator (front floor), and check that the engine can be started.
Note
If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (front floor), communication is not possible.
Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the No. 2 indoor electrical key oscillator (rear floor), and check that the engine can be started*.
*: If the customize setting for Ignition Available Area is not set to All, the engine will not start. Before performing this inspection, check that All has been selected Click here.
Note
If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the No. 2 indoor electrical key oscillator (rear floor), communication is not possible.
Tech Tips
As the effect of wave interference decreases by moving the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly close to the door control receiver, it may be possible to check whether wave interference is the cause of the problem.
If the problem only occurs in specific places or at specific times, wave interference may be the cause of the problem. Also, the vehicle may be have the effects of wave interference with the parts installed by the dealer. As a result, when parts have been installed by the dealer, it may be necessary to remove those parts before inspecting the vehicle.
There may be wave interference if the vehicle is near broadcasting antennas, large video displays, wireless garage door opener systems, wireless security cameras, home security systems, etc. In this case, move the vehicle to a different location and check if there is any improvement.
If a tool for checking electric waves, such as a signal strength meter, is available, move around the area while observing both the LF band (used by the vehicle antenna to form the detection area) and RF band (used by the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly for transmission) to check for locations where there is wave interference.

| The engine starts. |

CHECK KEY DIAGNOSTIC MODE
Check the following antennas in the key diagnostic mode Click here.
| *1 | Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-assembly |
| *a | Inspection point |
Check the indoor electrical key oscillator (front floor).
When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is at the inspection point, check that the wireless door lock buzzer sounds.
| *1 | Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-assembly |
| *a | Inspection point |
Check the No. 2 indoor electrical key oscillator (rear floor).
When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is at the inspection point, check that the wireless door lock buzzer sounds.
Tech Tips
If the buzzer sounds, it can be determined that the vehicle interior transmitters are operating normally.
It is possible to check which indoor electrical key oscillator (front floor or rear floor) is operating by the sounding of the buzzer.
If the buzzer does not sound for any indoor electrical key oscillators, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) circuit may have a malfunction.
