Toyota Venza: Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key

Toyota Venza Service Manual / Theft Deterrent / Keyless Entry / Smart Key System(for Entry Function) / Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key

DESCRIPTION

If the room oscillator does not recognize a key, one of the following may be the cause: 1) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor) and key cannot be performed; 2) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor) and key cannot be performed; or 3) communication between the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor) and key cannot be performed.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

The smart key system (for entry function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting (See page ). Troubleshoot the smart
key system (for entry function) after confirming that the communication system is functioning properly.
When using the Techstream with the engine switch off to troubleshoot: Connect the Techstream to the DLC3, and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5-second intervals until communication between the Techstream and vehicle begins.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function)

(a) Remove the battery of the key (See page ).

(b) With the brake pedal depressed, touch the engine switch while facing the logo side of the key to the engine switch.

OK:

Power source mode changes.

HINT:

When the key cannot be verified even though it is within the specified range, the engine start check can be performed by removing the transmitter battery from the key and holding the transmitter close to the engine switch.
When performing the check, if the power source mode changes, there is a problem with key certification inside the cabin.

GO TO SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Start Function) (Proceed to How to Proceed with Troubleshooting)

2.	CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Install the battery to the key (See page ).

(b) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor), and check that the engine can be started.

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor), communication is not possible.

(c) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor), and check that the engine can be started.

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor), communication is not possible.

(d) Bring the key near the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor), and check that the engine can be started*.

*: If the customize setting for Ignition Available Area is not set ALL, the engine will not start. Before performing this inspection, check that ALL has been selected (See page ).

NOTICE:

If the key is brought within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the indoor electrical key oscillator (for rear floor), communication is not possible.

HINT:

When the key is brought near the indoor electrical key oscillator, the possibility of wave interference decreases, and it can be determined if wave interference is causing the problem symptom.
If the operation is normal, the possibility of wave interference is high. Also, added vehicle components may cause wave interference. If installed, remove them and perform the operation check.

OK:

The engine starts.

AFFECTED BY WAVE INTERFERENCE

3.	PERFORM KEY DIAGNOSTIC MODE INSPECTION

(a) Diagnostic mode inspection (indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor))

(1) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(2) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(3) Turn the Techstream on.

(4) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key / Key Communication Check / Overhead + Front Room.

(5) When the key is placed on the driver seat or front passenger seat cushion, check that the wireless door lock buzzer sounds.

(b) Diagnostic mode inspection (indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor))

(1) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(2) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(3) Turn the Techstream on.

(4) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key / Key Communication Check / Overhead + Rear Room.

(5) When the key is placed on the rear seat cushion, check that the wireless door lock buzzer sounds.

(1) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(2) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(3) Turn the Techstream on.

(4) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key / Key Communication Check / Overhead + Back Door (inside).

(5) When the key is held at the same height as the rear bumper upper surface and aligned with the center of the rear of the vehicle, check that the wireless door lock buzzer sounds.

HINT:

If the buzzer sounds, it can be determined that the indoor electrical key oscillators are operating normally.

Result:

Result	Proceed to
Wireless door lock buzzer does not sound only for indoor electrical key oscillator (for front floor).	A
Wireless door lock buzzer does not sound only for indoor electrical key oscillator (for center floor).	B
