Inspection Procedure 2




Inspection Procedure 2: The keyless operation key cannot be registered using scan tool.














TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

If only some keyless operation keys cannot be registered, the keyless operation key itself may be faulty. If no keyless operation key can be registered, the key assembly may have already been registered for another vehicle, or the KOS-ECU may be faulty.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

- Malfunction of the keyless operation key
- Damaged wiring harness and connectors
- Malfunction of KOS-ECU
- Ignition key registered for other vehicle

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

- MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
