- CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION
- Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and rear door outside handle assembly (for driver side).
OK
Connectors are properly connected.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY
Result:
OK
See step 2
- Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and rear door outside handle assembly (for driver side).
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - REAR DOOR OUTSIDE HANDLE ASSEMBLY (FOR DRIVER SIDE))
- Disconnect the G12 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
- Disconnect the F22 rear door outside handle assembly (for driver side) connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G12-27 (CLG3) - F22-5 (ANT1) Always Below 1 Ω G12-26 (CG3B) - F22-2 (ANT2) Always Below 1 Ω - Reconnect the G12 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 3
- CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (OUTPUT TO REAR DOOR OUTSIDE HANDLE ASSEMBLY (FOR DRIVER SIDE))
