DTC

B1242

Wireless Door Lock Tuner Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The door control receiver receives a signal from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and sends signals to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) through the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) via CAN communication system. The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends door lock/unlock commands to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).

DTC No.

B1242

Wireless Door Lock Tuner Circuit Malfunction

One of the following conditions is met:

  • Short in RDAM between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and door control receiver.
  • Short in RCO between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and door control receiver.
  • Door control receiver
  • Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)
  • Harness or connector

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the Techstream with the engine 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 Key. 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.
  • If the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is replaced, refer to the Smart Key System (for start function).

  • When replacing or inspecting the door control receiver and wire harness, do not change the position or length of the wire harness. If the wire harness is too close to the door control receiver, entry and start function and wireless control function performance may be affected.
  • Check that there are no electrical key transmitter sub-assemblies in the vehicle.
  • This DTC is not stored within 10 seconds of the engine switch being turned from on (IG) to off.
  • When replacing the door control receiver, read the transmitter IDs (tire pressure warning system) stored in the old ECU using the Techstream and write them down before removal.*
  • It is necessary to perform initialization after registration of the transmitter IDs into the door control receiver if the door control receiver has been replaced.*
