When using the GTS with the ignition switch off, connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start(CAN). While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off 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), ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) or steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly), refer to Registration.

PROCEDURE

CLEAR DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs.

Body Electrical > Smart Key > Clear DTCs

2.	CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Check for DTCs.

Body Electrical > Smart Key > Trouble Codes

Result	Proceed to
DTC B278187 and B278588 are output	A
Only DTC 278187 is output	B
DTC B278187 and B278588 are not output	C

GO TO DTC CHART

USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK

3.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY) - AUXILIARY BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)

(a) Disconnect the H71 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
H71-1 (GND) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
H71-7 (B) - Body ground	Ignition switch off	11 to 14 V

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

4.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY))

(a) Disconnect the H46 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

(b) Disconnect the H71 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
H71-5 (LIN) - H46-8 (LIN)	Always	Below 1 Ω

REPLACE STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY)

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
