Diagnostic Procedure

StepInspectionAction
1Inspect the operation of the door glass by operating the power window main switch. Is the manual operation normal?YesGo to the next step.
NoInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Power window main switch (See POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH INSPECTION .) Power window motor (See POWER WINDOW MOTOR INSPECTION .) Battery (Low voltage)
2Inspect the operation of the door glass by operating the power window main switch. Does the door glass operate in auto?YesGo to the next step.
NoPerform the power window initialization procedure. (See POWER WINDOW SYSTEM INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE .)
3Does the door lock/unlock normally?YesInspect the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the BCM. If there is any malfunction, repair or replace the applicable part.
NoPerform the keyless entry system/advanced keyless entry and push button start system symptom troubleshooting procedure. (See NO.1 KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM DOES NOT OPERATE NORMALLY [KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM] .) (See NO.1 DOOR CANNOT BE LOCKED/UNLOCKED BY ADVANCED KEY [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .)
StepInspectionAction
1Inspect the door lock/unlock operation using the transmitter. Does it operate normally?YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Keyless receiver BCM (See BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) INSPECTION .) Keyless control module (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system) (See KEYLESS CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .)
NoGo to the next step.
2Inspect the open condition of the doors and the liftgate. Is the reason why they do not lock/unlock because a door or the liftgate is open?YesSystem is normal (Does not operate when a door or the liftgate is open).
NoGo to the next step.
3Verify whether the key is in the steering lock. (with keyless entry system) Verify that the ignition is switched to a position other than off. (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system)YesSystem is normal (Does not operate when the key is inserted in the steering wheel lock. (with keyless entry system) (Does not operation when the ignition is switched to position other than off. (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system))
NoGo to the next step.
4When the lock/unlock operation does not operate for reasons other than the above Steps 2 and 3.YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Keyless receiver Keyless control module (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system) (See KEYLESS CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .) Wiring harness between keyless control module/keyless receiver and BCM.
NoReinspect for malfunction recurrence. If the malfunction is not corrected, repeat the procedure from Step 1.
StepInspectionAction
1Verify the door lock/unlock operation by operating the request switch. Does it operate normally?YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Keyless receiver Keyless control module (See KEYLESS CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .) BCM (See BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) INSPECTION .)
NoGo to the next step.
2Verify the open condition of the doors and the liftgate. Is the reason why they do not lock/unlock because a door or the liftgate is open?YesThe system is normal (When any door or the liftgate is open, the system does not operate).
NoGo to the next step.
3Verify whether the key is in the steering lock. (with keyless entry system) Verify that the ignition is switched to a position other than off. (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system) Can the doors be locked/unlocked?YesSystem is normal (Does not operate when the key is inserted in the steering wheel lock. (with keyless entry system) (Does not operation when the ignition is switched to position other than off. (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system))
NoGo to the next step.
4The door lock/unlock does not operate for reasons other than Steps 2 and 3 above.YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Keyless receiver Keyless control module (with advanced keyless entry and push button start system) (See KEYLESS CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .) Wiring harness between the request switch and the keyless control module.
NoReinspect for malfunction recurrence. If the malfunction is not corrected, repeat the procedure from Step 1.
StepInspectionAction
1Inspect the door glass operation by operating the power window subswitch (passenger's). Does it operate normally?YesGo to the next step.
NoInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Power window subswitch (passenger's) (See POWER WINDOW SUBSWITCH INSPECTION .) Power window motor (See POWER WINDOW MOTOR INSPECTION .) Battery (Low voltage)
2Inspect the door glass operation by operating the power window subswitch (passenger's). Does it operate in auto?YesInspect the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the power window subswitch (passenger's). If there is any malfunction, repair or replace the applicable part.
NoPerform the power window initialization procedure. (See POWER WINDOW SYSTEM INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE .)
StepInspectionAction
1Operate the door glass in auto/manual by operating the power window main switch/power window subswitch (passenger's). Does the door glass stop before fully opening/closing using either operation?YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Power window main switch (See POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH INSPECTION .) Power window subswitch (passenger's) (See POWER WINDOW SUBSWITCH INSPECTION .) Power window motor (See POWER WINDOW MOTOR INSPECTION .) Battery (Low voltage) Door glass (Installation condition)
NoGo to the next step.
2Inspect the operation of the door glass by repeating Step 1 above. Does the door glass stop before fully opening/closing while in auto operation?YesPerform the power window initialization procedure. (See POWER WINDOW SYSTEM INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE .)
NoGo to the next step.
3Open the door glass by operating the transmitter. Does the door glass stop before fully opening?YesInspect the following parts, and repair or replace. Keyless control module (With advanced keyless entry and push button start system) (See KEYLESS CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .) BCM (See BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) INSPECTION .)
NoReinspect for malfunction recurrence. If the malfunction is not corrected, repeat the procedure from Step 1.
