CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM

GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM

M1549021100152

The following ECUs affect the functions and control
of the central door locking system.

Central door locking system

.

Door unlocking by operating the driver’s door lock key
cylinder
When the ignition key is inserted in the driver’s door lock key
cylinder and turned clockwise to unlock the driver’s door, the
ETACS-ECU operates its door unlock relay and passes a cur-
rent through the door lock actuator of the driver’s door for 0.25
seconds to unlock only the driver’s door.
When the ignition key is turned clockwise again, the
ETACS-ECU operates its door unlock relay and passes a cur-
rent through the door lock actuators of all doors for 0.25 sec-
onds and to unlock all doors.
NOTE: Vehicles with a multi center display (middle grade type)
can be customized so that a single unlock operation will unlock
all doors. Refer to

P.54B-578

Door locking or unlocking by operating the driver’s or
front passenger’s door lock switch
When the door is locked by the driver’s or front passenger’s
door lock switch, the ETACS-ECU operates its door lock relay
and passes a current through the door lock actuators of all
doors for 0.25 seconds to lock all doors.
When the door is unlocked by the driver’s or front passenger's
door lock switch, the ETACS-ECU operates its door unlock
relay and passes a current through the door lock actuators of
all doors for 0.25 seconds to unlock all doors.
When the door is locked and unlocked by driver’s or front pas-
senger's door lock switch consecutively, the ETACS-ECU oper-
ates its door lock relay and passes a current through the door
lock actuators of all doors for 0.25 seconds to lock all doors.
Then, the ETACS-ECU operates its door unlock relay and
passes a current through the door lock actuators of all doors for
0.25 seconds to unlock all doors. Due to this, there may be a
time lag between the driver’s or front passenger's door lock
switch actuation and the time when all doors are unlocked.

Forgotten key prevention function

If the driver's door is locked while it is open

If the driver's door is locked while it is open and when
the key is still in the ignition key cylinder, approxi-
mately 0.3 second later the ETACS-ECU activates
the unlock relay output for 0.25 second to prevent
the door from being locked with the key inside the
vehicle.

In addition, if locking the door was not prevented, a
re-try current is sent (an unlock relay output ON is
sent for 0.25 second up to 5 times including the first
attempt).
NOTE: The dotted line indicates that the system is
trying to turn on the unlock relay if the door cannot be
unlocked.
