Simplified Wiring System

KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM




GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM

ALL DOOR LOCK FUNCTION

PRESSING THE TRANSMITTER LOCK SWITCH




When the transmitter lock switch is pressed, the ETACS-ECU energizes its door lock relay to operate all the door lock actuators for 0.25 second, locking all doors.

DRIVER'S DOOR UNLOCK FUNCTION

PRESSING THE TRANSMITTER UNLOCK SWITCH ONCE





When the transmitter unlock switch is pressed once, the ETACS-ECU energizes its door unlock relay to operate the door lock actuator of the driver's door for 0.25 seconds, thus unlocking only the driver's door.

ALL DOOR UNLOCK FUNCTION

PRESSING THE TRANSMITTER UNLOCK SWITCH TWICE




When the transmitter unlock switch is pressed twice, the ETACS-ECU energizes its door unlock relay to operate the driver's door lock actuator and the other door lock actuators for 0.25 seconds each in succession. All the doors will be unlocked.

NOTE: If the timed locking function is available, the doors will be locked in 30 seconds after the initial unlocking. Therefore, the second door unlocking should be done within 30 seconds after that initial unlocking.

KEYLESS ENTRY HAZARD ANSWERBACK AND HORN ANSWERBACK FUNCTION

KEYLESS ENTRY HAZARD ANSWERBACK FUNCTION*1




If the keyless entry transmitter is used to send a lock signal to the ETACS-ECU, all doors, the liftgate, and the glass hatch are locked and the hazard warning lights flash once. If an unlock signal is sent, the driver's door is unlocked first,*2 and if a second signal is sent, all doors, the liftgate, and the glass hatch are unlocked. Each time the unlock signal is sent, the hazard warning lights flash twice.

NOTE: *1: The hazard answerback function can be customized using the keyless entry transmitter (Refer to Keyless Entry System) or by using the multi-center display (middle grade type). Refer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE.

NOTE: *2: Vehicles with a multi-center display (middle grade type) can be customized so that a single unlock operation will unlock all doors. Refer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE.

KEYLESS ENTRY HORN ANSWERBACK FUNCTION




If the keyless entry transmitter is used to send a driver's door lock signal to the ETACS-ECU, the tone alarm sounds when the ETACS-ECU receives the lock signal.

NOTE: The horn answerback function can be customized by using the keyless entry transmitter (Refer to Keyless Entry System) or by using the multi-center display (middle grade type). Refer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE.

TIMED LOCKING MECHANISM

After unlocking the doors with the keyless entry transmitter, if no doors are opened or if the ignition key is not inserted, the ETACS-ECU automatically locks the doors after 30 seconds.

NOTE: The timed locking function can be customized on vehicles equipped with a multi-center display (middle grade type). Refer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE.
