Driver Side Door Entry Lock and Unlock Functions do not Operate (07/2015 -): Description
If the entry lock and unlock functions do not operate for the driver door only, the request code may not be being transmitted from the driver door or the front door outside handle assembly LH (for driver door) (touch sensor) may be malfunctioning. If the entry functions for other doors operate properly, communication between the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and door control receiver is normal. In this case, there may be a problem with request code transmission (communication between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly LH (for driver door) (driver door electrical key antenna), or there may be wave interference.
HINT:
- If the driver door entry lock and unlock functions do not operate, the cause of the malfunction may be stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) (Refer to OPERATION HISTORY LIST (07/2015 -) ).
- If the cause of the malfunction is stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), the following table is helpful in checking whether the malfunction was caused by wave interference.
RADIO WAVE INTERFERENCE
| Parameter Name | Cause of Problem and Countermeasure |
|---|---|
| Lock / Key RF Signal Interference | When entry lock operation was performed, the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly could not be confirmed due to wave interference. If the cause of the malfunction has not been stored but the car has been moved and an entry lock operation has been successfully performed, the possibility of wave interference is high. |
| Unlock / Key RF Signal Interference | When entry unlock operation was performed, the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly could not be confirmed due to wave interference. If the cause of the malfunction has not been stored but the car has been moved and an entry unlock operation has been successfully performed, the possibility of wave interference is high. |
