NOTICE:
Do not wrap the lead wire around a terminal, wedge it between terminals, or solder it. The terminal may be deformed or damaged, and the battery will not be able to be installed correctly.

(c) Carefully pull the lead wire out from the position shown in the illustration and install the previously removed transmitter battery.

(d) Measure the voltage of the transmitter battery.

HINT
* When measuring the battery voltage, bring the electrical key transmitter within the entry lock operating range while operating the lock sensor of a door handle to perform the measurement. For the entry lock operating range, refer to System Description Smart Key System (for Entry Function).
* Perform the measurement when the electrical key transmitter is at room temperature.

Standard Voltage:





NG -- REPLACE TRANSMITTER BATTERY Transmitter Battery (w/ Smart Key System)

OK -- REPLACE ELECTRICAL KEY TRANSMITTER

7. CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Bring the electrical key transmitter near the door control receiver and perform a wireless and entry function operation check.

HINT
* When the electrical key transmitter is brought near the door control receiver, the possibility of electric wave interference decreases, and it can be determined if electric wave interference is causing the problem.
* 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 added vehicle components are installed, remove them and perform the operation check.
* There may be electric 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 key detection area) and RF band (used by the electrical key transmitter for transmission) to check for locations where there is wave interference.

OK:

Wireless and entry functions operate normally.

NG -- CHECK POWER SOURCE

OK -- AFFECTED BY WAVE INTERFERENCE

8. CHECK POWER SOURCE

(a) When the power source mode is off, check that the functions other than the entry functions recognize the power source mode as being off.

HINT
* Check if systems that should not be operating when the power source mode is off are operating.
* When the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) mistakenly determines the power source mode to be on (IG) for some reason [example: an ECU mistakenly determines the power source mode to be on (IG) and sends that information to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)] even though the power source mode is off, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) stops the entry and wireless functions.

OK:

When the power source mode is off, functions other than the entry functions recognize the power source mode as being off.
