Before performing the inspection, check that DTC B278987 or B278C87 is not output.
When using the GTS with the ignition switch off, perform lock and unlock operations using the door control switch of the multiplex network master switch assembly at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins, and then select the vehicle model manually.
Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start (CAN). While using the GTS, periodically perform lock and unlock operations using the door control switch of the multiplex network master switch assembly at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) or ID code box (immobiliser code ECU), refer to Service Bulletin.
Disconnect the I196 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
Disconnect the I20 ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Make sure that each ECU is in sleep mode before performing the inspection. To enter sleep mode, turn the ignition switch from ON to off and wait for 180 seconds or more without operating any switches.
