Lexus NX: Rear Door LH Entry Lock and Unlock Functions do not Operate

Lexus NX Service Manual / Vehicle Interior / Theft Deterrent / Keyless Entry / Smart Access System With Push-button Start (for Entry Function) / Rear Door LH Entry Lock and Unlock Functions do not Operate

DESCRIPTION

If the entry lock and unlock functions do not operate for the rear door LH only, the request code may not be being transmitted from the rear door LH or the rear door outside handle assembly LH (touch sensor) may be malfunctioning. If the entry functions for other doors operate properly, communication between the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and door control receiver is normal. In this case, there may be a problem with request code transmission (communication between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and rear door outside handle assembly LH (electrical key antenna)), or there may be wave interference.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • The smart access system with push-button start (for Entry Function) uses the LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the smart access system with push-button start (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.

  • When using the Techstream with the power 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 Access. 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 replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to smart access system with push-button start (for Entry Function) Precaution.

  • After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK POWER DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM

(a) When the door control switch on the multiplex network master switch assembly is operated, check that the doors unlock and lock according to the switch operation.

OK:

Door locks operate normally.

3.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly approximately 0.3 m (0.984 ft.) from the rear door outside handle assembly LH and perform an entry function check.

Click here

  • Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the rear door outside handle assembly LH.
  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought near the rear door outside handle assembly LH, the possibility of wave interference decreases, and it can be determined if wave interference is causing the problem symptom.
  • If the inspection result is that the problem only occurs in certain locations or at certain times of day, the possibility of wave interference is high. Also, added vehicle components may cause wave interference. If installed, remove them and perform the operation check.
  • There may be wave interference if the vehicle is near broadcasting antennas, large video displays, wireless garage door opener systems, wireless security cameras, home security systems, etc. In this case, move the vehicle to a different location and check if there is any improvement.
  • If a tool for checking radio waves, such as a signal strength meter, is available, move around the area while observing both the LF band (used by the vehicle antenna to form the detection area) and RF band (used by the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly for transmission) to check for locations where there is wave interference.
  • When checking the operation of the entry lock function several times, it can be operated up to 2 times consecutively. To operate the function 3 times or more consecutively, the doors need to be unlocked once. However, this is only for the entry lock function, other door lock operations, such as a wireless door lock operation can be performed consecutively.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (DR-DOOR TOUCH SENSOR, DR-DOOR TRIGGER SWITCH)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

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

HINT:

When checking the operation of the entry lock function several times, it can be operated up to 2 times consecutively. To operate the function 3 times or more consecutively, the doors need to be unlocked once. However, this is only for the entry lock function, other door lock operations, such as a wireless door lock operation can be performed consecutively.

OK:

The Techstream display changes correctly in response to the operation of the rear door outside handle assembly LH.

CHECK KEY DIAGNOSTIC MODE

(a) Check the following antenna in key diagnostic mode.

Body Electrical > Smart Access > Utility

Tester Display

Communication Check(Key Diag Mode)

(b) Select either channel 1 or channel 2 and perform key diagnostic mode inspection for each channel.

(1) Check the electrical key antenna (for rear door LH):

When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought within 0.7 to 1 m (2.30 to 3.28 ft.) of the rear door outside handle assembly LH, check that the wireless buzzer sounds.

HINT:

  • Select either channel 1 or channel 2 and inspect key diagnostic mode for each channel.
  • If the buzzer sounds with [CH1] displayed but not with [CH2], the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly cannot be detected by channel 2 due to a malfunction, such as wave interference.
