Central Door Locking System




GENERAL INFORMATION

CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM

The central door locking system operates the door lock actuator to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate using the door lock switches built into the front driver's power window main switch or front passenger's power window sub switch. This system has the following operations and features:

- All doors and liftgate can be locked or unlocked using the door lock switches built into the front driver's power window main switch or front passenger's power window sub switch.
- The key reminder function automatically unlocks all doors and liftgate when door lock operation is performed and the front doors are opened while the key is inserted into the ignition switch.

CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING OPERATION

The function that allows the driver's door to be opened by pulling the driver's door inside handle even when the driver's door inside lock knob is in the lock position is called "override function".





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 the doors (including the liftgate) for 0.25 second to lock all the doors (including the liftgate).
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 the doors (including the liftgate) for 0.25 second to unlock all the doors
(including the liftgate).
When a door is locked and unlocked by driver's or front passenger's door lock switch consecutively, the ETACS-ECU operates its door lock relay and passes a current through the door lock actuators of all the doors (including the liftgate) for 0.25 second to lock all the doors (including the liftgate). Then, the ETACS-ECU operates its door unlock relay and passes a current through the door lock actuators of all the doors (including the liftgate) for 0.25 second to unlock all the doors (including the liftgate). 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 the doors (including the liftgate) are unlocked.

SELECTOR "P" POSITION-LINKED DOOR UNLOCKING FUNCTION

When the selector lever is shifted to the "P" (parking) position with the ignition switch turned ON, all the doors (including the liftgate) will be unlocked automatically, improving passengers' convenience for getting out. Using a customization function, the selector
"P" position-linked door unlocking function can be switched (Refer to Programming and Relearning).





When the selector lever is shifted to the P position with the ignition switch turned ON, the transaxle range switch "P" turns ON, ETACS-ECU turns the unlock relay output ON for 0.25 second to unlock all the doors (including the liftgate).

IGNITION SWITCH "LOCK (OFF)" POSITION-LINKED DOOR UNLOCKING FUNCTION

- When the ignition switch is turned to the " LOCK (OFF)" position, all the doors (including liftgate) will be unlocked automatically, improving passengers' convenience for getting out. Using a customization function, the ignition switch " LOCK (OFF)" position-linked door unlocking function can be changed (Refer to Programming and Relearning ).
-




When the ignition switch is turned to the " LOCK (OFF)" position, ETACS-ECU turns the unlock relay output ON for 0.25 second to unlock all the doors.
