Title: THEFT DETERRENT / KEYLESS ENTRY: SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function, Gasoline Model): Engine does not Start; 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback GR Corolla [03/2023 -        ]

Engine does not Start

DESCRIPTION

except Manual Transaxle

  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in the cabin and the engine switch is pressed, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives a signal and changes the power source mode. Additionally, when the shift position is in P and the brake pedal is depressed, the engine can be started by pressing the engine switch. If the steering is unlocked, the engine can also be started by pressing the engine switch with the shift position in N and the brake pedal depressed.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the GTS with the ignition switch off, connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins.

    Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Start Key(CAN). While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS 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.

  • 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."

HINT:

  • If the ignition switch is changed from ON to ACC with the shift position in any position other than P, and then the shift position is moved to P and the engine switch is pressed with the brake pedal depressed, the ignition switch will turn off.*
  • If the brake pedal is repeatedly depressed while the engine is stopped, the brake booster pressure will be released and the force required to depress the brake pedal to illuminate the stop lights will increase.*
    • *: except Manual Transaxle

PROCEDURE
