2.CHECK FOR DTC
  1. Separate the keys from each other and/or remove the key ring.

  1. Delete the DTC (Click here).

  1. Insert a key into the ignition cylinder. Remove it. Repeat for all the other keys.

  1. Check that no code is output.

    OK:
    No code is output.



OK
NORMAL
NG


3.CHECK TRANSPONDER KEY ECU ASSEMBLY
B110405E01
  1. Using an oscilloscope or the intelligent tester, check for noise in the waveform between the terminals of the T20 amplifier connector and T21 ECU connector.

    OK:
    No noise is present (see illustration).

    Condition
    Specified Condition
    T21-15 (CODE) - T20-4 (CODE)
    5 V/DIV., 20 msec./DIV.
    Key inserted
    No noise is present



NG
FIND CAUSE OF NOISE AND REMOVE IT
OK


4.CHECK WIRE HARNESS (TRANSPONDER KEY ECU ASSEMBLY - TRANSPONDER KEY AMPLIFIER)
B110403E02
  1. Disconnect the T21 ECU connector.

  1. Disconnect the T20 amplifier connector.

  1. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Specified Condition
    T21-15 (CODE) - T20-4 (CODE)
    Below 1 Ω



NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK


5.CHECK OPERATION OF TRANSPONDER KEY AMPLIFIER
  1. After replacing the transponder key amplifier with a normally functioning amplifier, check that the engine starts.

    OK:
    Engine starts.



NG
REPLACE TRANSPONDER KEY ECU ASSEMBLY
OK
