 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, HV Model) 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, HV Model) after
confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.

- After performing repairs, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".
HINT: When DTC
B279A12 and the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) DTC are
output simultaneously, first perform troubleshooting for the
certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) DTC. PROCEDURE
| 1. |
CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTOR | (a) Turn the power switch off.
(b)
Check that the connectors are properly connected to the hybrid vehicle
control ECU and certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). OK: Connectors are properly connected.
| NG |
 | CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY |
|
OK |
 | |
| 2. |
CHECK WHETHER HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM STARTS |
(a) Check that the hybrid control system starts. OK: Hybrid control system starts normally.
| OK |
| USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK |
|
NG | |
| |
| 3. |
CHECK HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU | (a) Disconnect the A10 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
| (b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage: |
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition | |
A10-4 (EFIO) - Body ground |
Power switch off |
11 to 14 V → 1 V or less | |
 |
|
*a | Front view of wire harness connector
(to Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly)) | | |
| NG |
| GO TO STEP 5 |
|
OK | |
| |
| 4. |
CHECK HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU (TERMINAL IMI) |
(a) Connect the A10 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
(b) Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.
|
*a | Component with harness connected
(Hybrid Vehicle Control ECU) |
*b | Waveform | |
*c | Approximately 160 ms. |
*d | Approximately 270 ms. |
OK: |
Tester Connection | Condition |
Tool Setting | Specified Condition | |
G47-22 (IMI) - Body ground |
Within
3 seconds of hybrid control system start or within 3 seconds of power
switch turned on (IG) after cable disconnected and reconnected to
auxiliary battery | 2 V/DIV., 500 ms./DIV. |
Pulse generation (See waveform) |
| OK |
| REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU |
| NG |
| REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) |
| 5. |
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU) |
(a) Disconnect the G47 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector. (b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance: |
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition | |
A10-4 (EFIO) - G47-22 (IMI) |
Always | Below 1 Ω |
| OK |
| REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU |
| NG |
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR | |
