Toyota Venza: Wireless Door Lock Tuner Circuit Malfunction (B1242)

Toyota Venza Service Manual / Door Lock / Wireless Door Lock Control System(w/ Smart Key System) / Wireless Door Lock Tuner Circuit Malfunction (B1242)

DESCRIPTION

The door control receiver is used to receive electrical waves relating to the entry functions of the smart key system. The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) decodes the requested smart key system operation by identifying a key code based on the radio waves received via the door control receiver. The door control receiver receives a signal from the door control transmitter and sends signals to the main body ECU (driver side junction block assembly) through the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) then sends a command, according to the requested operation, to each ECU (ex. if door lock operation is requested, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends a door lock command to the main body ECU (driver side junction block assembly)).

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
B1242	Short in RDA or RSSI to ground between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and the door control receiver. Short in RDA or RSSI to ground when RC0 (5 V) output from the ECU is off.	Wire harness or connector Door control receiver Certification ECU (Smart key ECU assembly)

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing or inspecting the door control receiver and wire harness, do not change the position or length of the wire harness. If the wire harness is too close to the door control receiver, entry and wireless function performance may be affected.
Before performing the inspection, check that there are no problems related to the CAN communication system and LIN communication system.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DOOR CONTROL RECEIVER - CERTIFICATION ECU AND BODY GROUND)

(a) Disconnect the D25 and D26 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.

(b) Disconnect the M16 door control receiver connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D26-16 (RSSI) - M16-2 (RSSI)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D26-15 (RDA) - M16-5 (DATA)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D26-5 (RC0) - M16-4 (+5)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D25-15 (E) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω
M16-1 (GND) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω
D26-16 (RSSI) or M16-2 (RSSI) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
D26-15 (RDA) or M16-5 (DATA) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
D26-5 (RC0) or M16-4 (+5) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

2.	CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY)

(a) Reconnect the D25 and D26 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.

(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D26-5 (RC0) - D25-15 (E)	Engine switch off, all doors closed and transmitter switch pressed	4.5 to 5.5 V

REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY)

3.	REPLACE DOOR CONTROL RECEIVER

(a) Temporarily replace the door control receiver with a new one (See page ).

4.	CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Clear the DTC (See page ).

(b) Recheck for DTCs.

OK:

DTC B1242 is not output.

END (DOOR CONTROL RECEIVER WAS DEFECTIVE)

REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY)
