WIRELESS DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM
This system uses the multiplex communication system, so check diagnosis system of the multiplex commu-
nication system before you proceed with troubleshooting.
HINT:
Troubleshooting of the wireless door lock control system is based on the premise that the door lock
control system is operating normally. Accordingly, before troubleshooting the wireless door lock control
system, first make certain that the door lock control system is operating normally.
If the trouble still reappears even though there are no abnormalities in any of the other circuits, then
check and replace the Wireless Door Lock Control Receiver as the last step.
