B240B

DTC B240B: PS Side Antenna(Outdoor) Open

CAUTION: When replacing the ECU, always check that the communication circuit is normal.

Outside Transmission Antenna Assembly (Passenger's Side) Circuit (Part 1):

Outside Transmission Antenna Assembly (Passenger's Side) Circuit (Part 2):

DTC SET CONDITION
If an open circuit is detected in the outside transmission antenna (passenger's side), the DTC is set.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
When the ignition push switch is pressed, or when the antenna open circuit detection request is received from the diagnosis function, the failure is detected.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
- Malfunction of the outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side)
- Malfunction of the KOS-ECU
- Damaged wiring harness and connectors

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check KOS-ECU connector C-05 and outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) connector D-42 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

Q: Are KOS-ECU connector C-05 and outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) connector D-42 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.

NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Check that the outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) works normally.

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between KOS-ECU connector C-05 (terminal Nos. 6, 18, 40) and outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) connector D-42 (terminal Nos. 3, 2, 1).

- Check the communication, power supply, and ground wires for open circuit.

NOTE: Also check intermediate connectors C-23, C-42 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate connectors C-23, C-42 is damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s).

Q: Are the wiring harness between KOS-ECU connector C-05 (terminal Nos. 6, 18, 40) and outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) connector D-42 (terminal Nos. 3, 2, 1) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.

NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Check that the outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) works normally.

STEP 3. Keyless operation system communication test

Check that the communication with the outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side) is normal (Refer to Antenna Test). Antenna Communication Test

Antennas to be checked
- Passenger side antenna (exterior)

OK: Normal is displayed.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.

NO : Replace the outside transmission antenna assembly (passenger's side).

STEP 4. Check whether the diagnostic trouble code is reset.

1. Erase the DTC.
2. Turn the ignition switch from the LOCK (OFF) position to the ON position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Replace KOS-ECU and register the ID codes.

NO : The procedure is complete.
