Immobilizer-Keyless Control Unit Input Test

  1. Remove the steering column covers (see GLOVE BOX STRIKER REPLACEMENT ).
  2. Disconnect the 7P connector (A) from the immobilizer-keyless control unit (B).

  3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
  4. With the connector still disconnected, do the following input tests:
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.
    WIRE SPECIFICATIONS

    Cavity Wire Terminal name Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
    4 GRN B-CAN Disconnect the gauge control module 32P connector Check for continuity between the terminal No. 4 and the gauge control module 32P connector terminal No. 17: There should be continuity. An open in the wire
    Disconnect driver's under-dash fuse/relay box connector Q(16P) Check for continuity between the terminal No. 4 and driver's under-dash fuse/relay box connector Q(16P) terminal No. 3: There should be continuity. An open in the wire
    3 GRN IMOCD (S-NET) Disconnect PCM connector A (44P) (see HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT CIRCUITS AT THE PCM CONNECTORS ) Measure the voltage to ground: There should be about 5 V.
    • A short to ground in the wire
    • An open in the wire
    Disconnect the battery negative terminal Measure the resistance between the terminal No. 3 and body ground: There should be more than 50 kΩ
    • Faulty imoes unit
    • Faulty under-dash fuse/relay box
    • An open in the wire
    Disconnect PCM connector A (44P) (see HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT CIRCUITS AT THE PCM CONNECTORS ) Check for continuity between the terminal No. 3 and PCM connector A (44P) terminal No. 44: There should be continuity. An open in the wire
  5. Reconnect the connector to the immobilizer-keyless control unit, and do the following input tests:
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, replace the immobilizer-keyless control unit (see IMMOBILIZER-KEYLESS CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT  ).
    NOTE: After replacing the immobilizer-keyless control unit, do the immobilizer registration (see IMMOBILIZER KEY REGISTRATION  ).
