- | - | Inspection INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT ELECTRICAL KEY TRANSMITTER SUB-ASSEMBLY (a) Inspect the operation of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.
(1) Remove the transmitter battery from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.

| (2) Install a new or known good transmitter battery. Click here
NOTICE: When
replacing the transmitter battery, before starting work, remove static
electricity that has built up in the body by touching, for example, the
vehicle to prevent the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly from
being damaged. HINT: If a new
or known good transmitter battery is not available, first connect 2 new
1.5 V batteries in series. Then connect leads to the batteries and
apply 3 V to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly as shown in the
illustration. | |
(3)
From outside the vehicle, approximately 1 m (3.28 ft.) from the driver
door outside door handle, test the electrical key transmitter
sub-assembly by pointing its key plate at the vehicle and pressing an
electrical key transmitter sub-assembly switch. OK: The door lock can be operated via the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.
The LED comes on more than once.
- The operational area differs depending on the user, the way the
electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is held, and the location.
- The weak radio waves of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly may
be affected if the area has strong radio waves or noise. The electrical
key transmitter sub-assembly operation area may be shortened or the
electrical key transmitter sub-assembly may not function.
(b) Inspect the transmitter battery capacity. (1)
Remove the transmitter battery from the electrical key transmitter
sub-assembly that does not operate. Attach a lead wire (0.6 mm (0.0236
in.) in diameter or less including wire sheath) with tape or equivalent
to the negative terminal. Click here
NOTICE: Do
not wrap the lead wire around a terminal, wedge it between the
terminals, or solder it. A terminal may be deformed or damaged, and the
transmitter battery will not be able to be installed correctly.
| (2)
Carefully pull the lead wire out from the position shown in the
illustration and install the previously removed transmitter battery. NOTICE:
When
replacing the transmitter battery, before starting work, remove static
electricity that has built up in the body by touching, for example, the
vehicle to prevent the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly from
being damaged. | |
| (3) Check the transmitter battery voltage.
HINT:
- When measuring the transmitter battery voltage, while operating the lock
sensor of a door handle, bring the electrical key transmitter
sub-assembly within the entry operating range to perform the
measurement. For the entry operating range, refer to Precaution.
for Gasoline Model:

for HV Model:

- Perform the measurement when the key is at room temperature.
- The key sends voltage information to the certification ECU (smart key
ECU assembly) when it is transmitting. When this voltage is 2.1 V or
less the Data List item "Key Low Battery" displays "Yes".
Standard Voltage: |
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition | |
Transmitter battery positive (+) - Transmitter battery negative (-) |
Engine switch (for Gasoline Model) or power switch (for HV Model) off, all doors closed and lock sensor touched |
2.5 to 3.2 V | If the result is not as specified, replace the transmitter battery. |
