Title: THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM(for Entry Function): Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key; 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]

Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key

DESCRIPTION

If the room oscillator does not recognize a key, one of the following may be the cause: 1) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor) and key cannot be performed; 2) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor) and key cannot be performed; or 3) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor) and key cannot be performed.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • The smart key system (for entry function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM(for Entry Function): HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING ). Troubleshoot the smart key system (for entry function) after confirming that the communication system is functioning properly.
  • When using the Techstream with the engine switch off to troubleshoot: Connect the Techstream to the DLC3, and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5-second intervals until communication between the Techstream and vehicle begins.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function)

(a) Remove the battery of the key (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; DOOR LOCK: TRANSMITTER BATTERY(w/ Smart Key System): REPLACEMENT ).

(b) With the brake pedal depressed, touch the engine switch while facing the logo side of the key to the engine switch.

(c) When operating the engine switch, check whether the power source mode changes.

OK:

Power source mode changes.

HINT:

  • When the key cannot be verified even though it is within the specified range, the engine start check can be performed by removing the transmitter battery from the key and holding the transmitter close to the engine switch.
  • When performing the check, if the power source mode changes, there is a problem with key certification inside the cabin.

2.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Install the battery to the key (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; DOOR LOCK: TRANSMITTER BATTERY(w/ Smart Key System): REPLACEMENT ).

(b) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor), and check that the engine can be started.

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor), communication is not possible.

(c) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor), and check that the engine can be started.

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor), communication is not possible.

(d) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor), and check that the engine can be started*.

*: If the customize setting for Ignition Available Area is not set ALL, the engine will not start. Before performing this inspection, check that ALL has been selected (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM(for Entry Function): CUSTOMIZE PARAMETERS ).

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor), communication is not possible.

HINT:

  • When the key is brought near the indoor electrical key oscillator, the possibility of wave interference decreases, and it can be determined if wave interference is causing the problem symptom.
  • If the operation is normal, the possibility of wave interference is high. Also, added vehicle components may cause wave interference. If installed, remove them and perform the operation check.

OK:

The engine starts.

CHECK TRANSMITTER BATTERY

(a) Remove the battery from the key that does not operate. Attach a lead wire (0.6 mm (0.0236 in.) or less in diameter including wire sheath) with tape or equivalent to the negative (-) terminal (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; DOOR LOCK: TRANSMITTER BATTERY(w/ Smart Key System): REPLACEMENT ).

NOTICE:

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

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

(c) Using an oscilloscope, check the transmitter battery voltage waveform.

HINT:

When measuring the battery voltage, while operating the lock switch of a door outside handle assembly, bring the key within the entry operating range to perform the measurement. For the entry operating range, refer to System Description (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM(for Entry Function): SYSTEM DESCRIPTION ).
