Lexus NX: Room Oscillator does not Recognize Key

DESCRIPTION

If code verification cannot be performed in the vehicle interior, there may be problems with the communication between the vehicle (No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor), No. 2 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor) or No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage)) and electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, or the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) may be malfunctioning. When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the vehicle, verification of the key ID code transmitted from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and the key ID code stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is performed. If verification cannot be performed or the codes do not match, the power switch cannot be turned on (IG) and the hybrid control system cannot be started.

When a door is unlocked and the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought into the vehicle, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) activates the indoor electrical key antenna assembly which transmits radio waves to detect the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly. If the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly recognizes that it is in the detection area, it responds with the key ID code. This information is received by the indoor electrical key antenna and then sent to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

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.
  • 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".
  • The indoor electrical key antenna assemblies have an antenna coil between each terminal.
  • The door control receiver assembly is also related to interior verification.

CHECK WAVE ENVIRONMENT

(a) Install the transmitter battery to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.

Click here

(b) Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor) and perform a smart access system with push-button start check.

Click here

NOTICE:

Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor).

Click here

(c) Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the No. 2 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor) and perform a smart access system with push-button start check.

Click here

HINT:

Check that the customize status of the "Ignition Available Area" has been "All".

Click here

NOTICE:

Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the center of the No. 2 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor).

Click here

(d) Bring the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly near the No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage) and perform a smart access system with push-button start check.

Click here

HINT:

Check that the customize status of the "Ignition Available Area" has been "All".

Click here

NOTICE:

Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the center of the No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage).

Click here

HINT:

  • As the effect of wave interference decreases by moving the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly close to each indoor electrical key antenna assembly, it may be possible to check whether wave interference is the cause of the problem.
  • 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.

OK:

The hybrid control system starts when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is held near each indoor electrical key antenna assembly and the power switch is pressed.

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.
  • It is possible to check which indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor, rear floor or inside luggage) is operating by the sounding of the buzzer.
  • When the wireless buzzer sounds for all indoor electrical key antenna assemblies, they can be judged as operating properly and a malfunction in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), which performs verification, is suspected.
  • When the wireless buzzer does not sound for all indoor electrical key antenna assemblies, it can be judged that the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), which controls the indoor electrical key antenna assemblies, is malfunctioning.
