Check Door Lock Actuator And Circuit

  1. CHECK HARNESS (DOOR LOCK)  .
    1. Disconnect the body integrated unit and each door lock actuator connector.
    2. Check the harness between body integrated unit and each door lock actuator.

    (1266) No. 5 - (D26) No. 4:

    Rear door RH 

    (i266) No. 4 - (D32) No. 4:

    Is harness normal?

    Yes  : Go to  2.

    No  : Repair or replace the harness.

  2. CHECK HARNESS (DOOR UNLOCK)  .

    Check the harness between body integrated unit and each door lock actuator.

    Connector & terminal 

    Front door LH 

    (i84) No. 6 - (D72) No. 1:

    Front door RH 

    (1265) No. 2 - (D18) No. 1:

    Rear door LH 

    (1266) No. 9 - (D26) No. 1:

    Rear door RH 

    (i265) No. 2 - (D32) No. 1:

    Is harness normal?

    Yes  : Go to  3.

    No  : Repair or replace the harness.

  3. CHECK HARNESS (REAR GATE UNLOCK)  .

    Check the harness between the body integrated unit and rear gate lock actuator.

    Connector & terminal 

    (i266) No. 7 - (D46) No. 1:

    Is harness normal?

    Yes  : Go to  4.

    No  : Repair or replace the harness.

  4. CHECK HARNESS (REAR GATE UNLOCK)  .

    Measure the resistance between the rear gate lock actuator connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (D46) No. 2 - Chassis ground:

    Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

    Yes  : Go to  5.

    No  : Repair or replace the harness.

  5. CHECK BODY INTEGRATED UNIT OUTPUT SIGNAL  .
    1. Connect the body integrated unit connector.
    2. Measure the voltage between terminals of the body integrated unit when operating the door lock switch to LOCK direction.

    Connector & terminal Front door LH 

    (i265) No. 6 (+) - (i84) No. 6 (-):

    Front door RH 

    (1265) No. 7 (+) - (i265) No. 2 (-):

    Rear door LH 

    (1266) No. 5 (+) - (i266) No. 9 (-):

    Rear door RH 

    (i266) No. 4 (+) - (i265) No. 2 (-):

    Does the voltage change from less than 1 V → 9 V or more? (During lock output)

    Yes  : Go to  6.

    No  : Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>BODY INTEGRATED UNIT .

  6. CHECK BODY INTEGRATED UNIT OUTPUT SIGNAL  .

    Measure the voltage between terminals of the body integrated unit when operating the door lock switch to UNLOCK direction.

    Connector & terminal Front door LH 

    (i84) No. 6 (+) - (i265) No. 6 (-):

    Front door RH 

    (1265) No. 2 (+) - (i265) No. 7 (-):

    Rear door LH 

    (1266) No. 9 (+) - (i266) No. 5 (-):

    Rear door RH 

    (i265) No. 2 (+) - (i266) No. 4 (-):

    Does the voltage change from less than 1 V → 9 V or more? (During unlock output)

    Yes  : Go to  7.

    No  : Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>BODY INTEGRATED UNIT .

  7. CHECK BODY INTEGRATED UNIT OUTPUT SIGNAL  .

    Measure the voltage between body integrated unit and chassis ground when operating the rear gate opener button.

    Connector & terminal 

    (i266) No. 7 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    Does the voltage change from less than 1 V → 9 V or more? (During unlock output)

    Yes  : Go to  8.

    No  : Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>BODY INTEGRATED UNIT .

  8. CHECK DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR  .

    Check the door lock actuator. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>Door Latch & Door Lock Actuator Assembly>INSPECTION .

    Is the door lock actuator OK?

    Yes  : Go to  9.

    No  : Replace the door latch and door lock actuator assembly.

  9. CHECK REAR GATE LOCK ACTUATOR  .

    Check the rear gate lock actuator. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>Rear Gate Latch and Actuator Assembly>INSPECTION .

    Is the rear gate lock actuator normal?

    Yes  : Check the connection status of the harness and connector that may have a temporary poor contact.

    No  : Replace the rear gate latch and actuator assembly.
