Driver Side Door Entry Unlock Function does not Operate |
DESCRIPTION
If the entry unlock function does not operate for the driver door only, but the entry lock function operates, the request code is being transmitted properly from the driver door. In this case, there may be a problem related to the unlock sensor (connection between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly (for driver door)).

- When using the Techstream with the engine switch off, connect the Techstream to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the Techstream and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key. While using the Techstream, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the Techstream and the vehicle.
- Check that there are no electrical key transmitter sub-assemblies in the vehicle.
-
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to Precaution.
