      MAIN BODY

      Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Back Door Courtesy SW Back door courtesy light switch signal / ON or OFF ON: Back door is open
      OFF: Back door is closed
      -

      OK

      On Techstream screen, item changes between ON and OFF according to above chart.

    NG → See step   14 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (BACK DOOR SELECT) 
    1. Select the Active Test, use the Techstream to generate a control command, and then check that the door electrical key oscillator operates.
      SMART KEY

      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      Back Door Select Door electrical key oscillator (back door) ON or OFF -

      OK

      ON (Outside Trunk/Backdoor Transmitter is ON) appears on screen.

    NG → See step   15 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (TOUCH SENSOR) 
    1. With "Back Door Select" ON, check the Data List to confirm the operation of the touch sensor.
      SMART KEY

      Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      B-Door Touch Sensor Back door touch sensor / ON or OFF ON: Touch sensor is touched
      OFF: Touch sensor is not touched
      -

      OK

      When back door sensor is set to ON, ON (sensor is touched) appears on screen.

    NG → See step   8 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. CHECK ECU AGGREGATION BOX (OPERATION) 
    1. Temporarily replace the ECU aggregation box (certification ECU) with a new or normally functioning one.
    2. Check that the entry back door unlock function operates normally.

      OK

      Entry back door unlock function operates normally.

    NG → REPLACE INSTRUMENT PANEL JUNCTION BLOCK (MAIN BODY ECU) 

    OK → END (CERTIFICATION ECU IS DEFECTIVE) 

  8. CHECK DOOR ELECTRICAL KEY OSCILLATOR (for Back Door)

    1. Measure the voltage of the oscillator.

      Standard voltage 

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      4 (SEL) - Body ground During Active Test Below 1 V
      6 (SENS) - Body ground Touch sensor is touched during Active Test Below 1 V
      Touch sensor is not touched during Active Test 11 to 14 V

    NG → See step   9 

    OK → See step   15 

  9. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (DOOR ELECTRICAL KEY OSCILLATOR - ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA)

    1. Disconnect the Q11 oscillator connector.
    2. Disconnect the Q12 antenna connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

      Standard resistance 

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      Q11-2 (SGT) - Q12-6 (SGT) Below 1 Ω
      Q11-3 (ANT1) - Q12-5 (ANT1)
