Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Engine Immobiliser System Malfunction (B2799,B279986)

DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when one of the following occurs: 1) the ECM detects errors in its own communication with the transponder key ECU assembly; 2) the ECM detects errors in the communication lines; or 3) the ECU communication ID between the transponder key ECU assembly and ECM is different and an engine start is attempted.

DTC No.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • If the transponder key ECU assembly or ECM is replaced, refer to Registration (See page After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output ).
  • After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

HINT:

If the transponder key ECU assembly DTC is output simultaneously, troubleshoot the transponder key ECU assembly DTCs first.
