Title: THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function, HV Model): Power Source Mode does not Change to ON (IG and ACC); 2021 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [04/2020 - 09/2022]

Power Source Mode does not Change to ON (IG and ACC)

DESCRIPTION

When the power switch cannot be turned on (ACC) or on (IG), interior verification may be abnormal or there may be a malfunction in the ACC relay or IG relay circuit. If interior verification cannot be performed, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) may be malfunctioning or communication may not be possible between the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor) antenna assembly (rear floor) and the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and door control receiver.

When an electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the cabin, its key ID code is compared with the key ID code stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). If these codes do not match, key verification will fail and the power switch will not be able to be turned on (ACC) or on (IG).

When a door is unlocked and an electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the cabin, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) activates the indoor electrical key antenna assemblies to form the interior detection area. The electrical key transmitter sub-assembly then responds to the detection signals with its key ID code. This response signal is received by the door control receiver and sent to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

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.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
  • Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) or an electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, refer to Registration.

    Click here 2021 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [04/2020 - 09/2022]; THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function, HV Model): REGISTRATION

  • After completing repairs, confirm that the problem does not recur.
  • After performing repairs, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation."
  • The indoor electrical key antenna assemblies have an antenna coil between each terminal.
  • The door control receiver is also related to interior certification.

HINT:

  • If interior verification is unsuccessful, Operation History may be stored.
  • If Operation History has been stored, refer to the Operation History List to determine the detection conditions and narrow down trouble areas.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Install the transmitter battery to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.

Click here 2020 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback Corolla HV GR Corolla [01/2019 - 09/2022]; DOOR LOCK: DOOR CONTROL TRANSMITTER (w/ Smart Key System): INSTALLATION

(b) Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor) and perform a smart key system check.

Click here 2021 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [04/2020 - 09/2022]; THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function, HV Model): OPERATION CHECK

NOTICE:

Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor).

HINT:

  • As the effect of wave interference decreases by moving the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly close to each indoor electrical key antenna assembly, it may be possible to check whether wave interference is the cause of the problem.
  • If the inspection result is that the problem only occurs in certain locations or at certain times of day, the possibility of wave interference is high. Also, added vehicle components may cause wave interference. If installed, remove them and perform the operation check.
  • There may be wave interference if the vehicle is near broadcasting antennas, large video displays, wireless garage door opener systems, wireless security cameras, home security systems, etc. In this case, move the vehicle to a different location and check if there is any improvement.
  • If a tool for checking radio waves, such as a signal strength meter, is available, move around the area while observing both the LF band (used by the vehicle antenna to form the detection area) and RF band (used by the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly for transmission) to check for locations where there is wave interference.

OK:

The hybrid control system starts when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is held near each indoor electrical key antenna assembly and the power switch is pressed with the brake pedal depressed.

CHECK KEY DIAGNOSTIC MODE

(a) Check the following antennas in key diagnostic mode.

(b) Check the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor).

When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is at either inspection point, check that the wireless buzzer sounds.

HINT:

  • Select either channel 1 or channel 2 and perform the key diagnostic mode inspection for each channel.
  • If the buzzer sounds with [CH1] displayed but not with [CH2], the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly cannot be detected by channel 2 due to a malfunction, such as wave interference.
  • It is possible to check which electrical key antenna assembly is operating by the sounding of the buzzer.
  • When the wireless buzzer sounds for the indoor electrical key antenna assembly, that can be judged as operating properly and a malfunction in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), which performs verification, is suspected.
  • When the wireless buzzer does not sound for the indoor electrical key antenna assembly, it can be judged that the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), which controls the indoor electrical key antenna assembly, is malfunctioning.
