Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Antenna Coil Open / Short (B2784)

Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Engine Immobiliser / Engine Immobiliser System(w/ Smart Key System) / Antenna Coil Open / Short (B2784)

DESCRIPTION

When an open or short circuit is detected in the transponder key amplifier coil built into the engine switch, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) stores this DTC. This DTC is also stored as a past DTC.

DTC Code	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area	DTC Output Confirmation Operation
B2784	The transponder key amplifier coil built into the engine switch is open (see below) or shorted (determined by communication with certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)) (1 trip detection logic*). Terminal AGND, VC5, TXCT or CODE is open (includes disconnection of the engine switch). The transponder key amplifier coil built into the engine switch is open.	Engine switch Wire harness or connector Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)	With the shift lever in P, the key held near the engine switch and an engine start operation is performed by pressing and holding the engine switch when the key battery is depleted.

*: Only output while a malfunction is present.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to Registration (See page ).
After performing repairs, perform the operation that fulfills the DTC output confirmation operation, and then confirm that no DTCs are output again.

PROCEDURE

CLEAR DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs (See page ).

2.	CHECK DTC OUTPUT

(a) Perform "DTC Output Confirmation Operation" procedure.

(b) Check for DTCs (See page OK: ).

OK:

DTC B2784 is not output.

USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK

3.	CHECK ENGINE SWITCH (OUTPUT)

(a) Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.
