Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key [08/2015 - 08/2019]: Description

If code verification cannot be performed in the vehicle interior, there may be problems with the communication between the vehicle (indoor electrical key antenna assembly [front floor], [rear floor] or [inside luggage]) and key, or the certification ECU may be malfunctioning. When the key is brought into the vehicle, verification of the key ID code transmitted from the key and the key ID code stored in the certification ECU is performed. If verification cannot be performed or the codes do not match, the engine switch cannot be turned on (IG) and the engine cannot be started.

When a door is unlocked and the key is brought into the vehicle, the certification ECU activates the indoor electrical key antenna assembly which transmits electric waves to detect the key. If the key recognizes that it is in the detection area, it responds with the key ID code. This information is received by the indoor electrical key antenna and then sent to the certification ECU.
