Title: THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Entry Function, Gasoline Model): Back Door Entry Unlock Function does not Operate; 2019 - 2024 MY RAV4 [11/2018 -        ]

Back Door Entry Unlock Function does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

If the entry unlock function does not operate for the back door only, but the entry lock function operates, the request code is being transmitted properly from the back door. In this case, there may be a problem related to the unlock switch (connection between the back door opener switch assembly and certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • 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.
  • The smart key system (for Entry Function) uses the LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the smart key system (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
