Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Driver Side Door Entry Lock Function does not Operate

Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Door Lock / Smart Key System(for Entry Function) / Driver Side Door Entry Lock Function does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

If the entry lock function does not operate for the driver door only, but the entry unlock function operates, the request code is being transmitted properly from the driver door. In this case, there may be a problem related to the front door outside handle assembly LH (lock sensor) (connection between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly LH [lock sensor]).

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

The smart key system (for Entry Function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the smart key system (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly (See page ).
When using the Techstream with the engine switch off, connect the Techstream to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the Techstream and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key. While using the Techstream, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the Techstream and the vehicle.
Check that there are no electrical key transmitter sub-assemblies in the vehicle.
Before performing the inspection, check that DTC B1242 (wireless door lock control) is not output (See page ).
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the smart key system (for Entry Function) precaution (See page ).
After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing the "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK POWER DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM

(a) When the door control switch on the power window regulator switch assembly is operated, check that the doors unlock and lock according to the switch operation (See page OK: ).

OK:

Door locks operate normally.

GO TO POWER DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM

2.	READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (D-DOOR TRIGGER SWITCH)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Key / Data List.

(e) Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.

D-Door Trigger Switch	Driver door touch sensor (lock sensor) / ON or OFF	ON: Driver door touch sensor (lock sensor) touched OFF: Driver door touch sensor (lock sensor) not touched	Displays whether the lock sensor is on or off (even if the sensor is touched and contact is maintained, "ON" is displayed only momentarily). Use this Data List item to help determine if there is a lock sensor malfunction when the entry lock function does not operate.

REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY)

3.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - FRONT DOOR OUTSIDE HANDLE ASSEMBLY LH)

(a) Disconnect the C29 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

(b) Disconnect the F40 front door outside handle assembly LH connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
C29-4 (CLG1) - F40-6 (ANT1)	Always	Below 1 Ω
C29-3 (CG1B) - F40-4 (ANT2)	Always	Below 1 Ω
C29-4 (CLG1) or F40-6 (ANT1) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
C29-3 (CG1B) or F40-4 (ANT2) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

(d) Reconnect the F40 front door outside handle assembly LH connector.

(e) Reconnect the C29 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

4.	CHECK FRONT DOOR OUTSIDE HANDLE ASSEMBLY LH (INPUT TO DRIVER DOOR LOCK SENSOR)

(a) Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.
