Door Switch Input Signal Check

  1. Preliminary Check

    Turn ignition off and remove key. Close glass hatch, engine hood and all doors. SECURITY indicator light should be off. Open any door. SECURITY indicator light should flash in one-second intervals. If operation is as specified, door switch is okay. If operation is not as specified, go to next step.
  2. Check Door Switch Input Signal

    Ensure ignition is off. Using DVOM, measure voltage (backprobe) between ground and terminals No. 29 (Red wire) and No. 28 (Red/White wire) at Smart Entrance Control Unit (SECU) harness connector. See Figure . See WIRING DIAGRAMS  . Ensure voltage is as specified. See DOOR SWITCH CIRCUIT VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONS  table. If voltage is as specified, door switch is okay. If voltage is not as specified, go to next step.
    DOOR SWITCH CIRCUIT VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONS

    Application (Terminal No.) & Condition Voltage
    LF Door (29)
    Door Open Zero
    Door Closed About 5 Volts
    All Other Doors (28)
    Door Open Zero
    Door Closed About 5 Volts
  3. Check Door Switch

    Ensure ignition is off. Disconnect door switch harness connectors. Using DVOM, check for continuity between door switch terminals under specified conditions. See DOOR SWITCH CONTINUITY SPECIFICATIONS  table. If continuity is not as specified, replace faulty door switch. If continuity is as specified, check for open or short in door switch harnesses. Check for poor door switch ground. Repair as necessary.
