Title: THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function, HV Model): Security Indicator Light Does not Blink; 2023 - 2024 MY RAV4 HV [10/2022 -        ]

Security Indicator Light Does not Blink

DESCRIPTION

  • The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) blinks the security indicator light when the immobiliser is set (power switch off).
  • The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives the security indicator light signal from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication when the theft deterrent system is in the arming preparation state or alarm sounding state. Then, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) blinks the security indicator light.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the Techstream with the power 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 Start 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 Start Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.

  • Make sure that no DTCs are output. If any DTCs are output, proceed to the Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart.
  • After completing repairs, confirm that the problem does not recur.
  • After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical or Powertrain / Smart Key or Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.

(e) Check for DTCs.

Body Electrical > Smart Key > Trouble Codes

Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Trouble Codes

OK:

DTCs are not output.
