REPLACEMENT
1.Remove the right C filler trim(A) and luggage side trim. (Refer to Body group - Interior trim).
2.Remove the diversity(C) after removing 1P connector (A) and radio feeder cable (B).
3.Remove the glass antenna radio amplifier (A) - Left/Right each 1 ea- after removing radio feeder cable (B) and
amplifier wiring (C) from the glass antenna radio amplifier (A).
4.Installation is the reverse of removal.
INSPECTION
GLASS ANTENNA TEST
1. Wrap aluminum foil (A) around the tip of the tester probe (B) as shown.

4.Check for continuity in the repaired wire.
5. Apply a second coat of paint in the same way. Let it dry three hours before removing the tape.
DIVERSITY & RADIO AMPLIFIER INSPECTION
1.Disconnect power connector 1P (A) from the diversity.
2. Turn the radio ON.
Measure the voltage between the harness side power connector and body ground.
OK : approximately 12V (ACC+)
3.Remove the radio feeder cable from the diversity and radio amp.
4. Check for continuity between diversity and right side radio amp feeder cable (B).
5. Check for continuity between diversity and left side radio amplifier feeder cable (C).
6. Disconnect the 2P power connector from the glass antenna radio amplifier.

7.Check for continuity between terminals of harness side connector and antenna grid terminals (AM, FM).
8. Check the grid lines for continuity.
9. When a poor radio reception is not repaired through the above inspection methods, replace the amp.
If the radio reception is still poor, check the radio cable for short and radio head unit for failure.
ANTENNA CABLE
1.Remove the antenna jack from the audio unit and antenna.
2. Check for continuity between the center poles of antenna cable.
3.Check for continuity between the outer poles of antenna cable. There should be continuity.
4.If there is no continuity, replace the antenna cable.
5. Check for continuity between the center pole of antenna cable and terminal of glass antenna. There should be
continuity.
6.If there is no continuity, replace the antenna amplifier.
7. Check for continuity between the center pole (A) and outer pole (B) of antenna cable. There should be no
continuity.

SMARTRA unit
The SMARTRA carries out communication with the built- in transponder in the ignition key. This wireless
communication runs on RF (Radio frequency of 125 kHz). The SMARTRA is mounted behind of the crush pad under
panel close to the antenna coil for RF transmission and receiving.
The RF signal from the transponder, received by the antenna coil, is converted into messages for serial
communication by the SMARTRA device. And, the received messages from the PCM(ECM) are converted into an RF
signal, which is transmitted to the transponder by the antenna.
The SMARTRA does not carry out the validity check of the transponder or the calculation of encryption algorithm. This
device is only an advanced interface, which converts the RF data flow of the transponder into serial communication to
the PCM(ECM) and vice versa.
TRANSPONDER (Built-in keys)
The transponder has an advanced encryption algorithm. During the key teaching procedure, the transponder will be
programmed with vehicle specific data. The vehicle specific data are written into the transponder memory. The write
procedure is once only; therefore, the contents of the transponder can never be modified or changed.
Antenna coil
The antenna coil (A) has the following functions.a. The antenna coil supplies energy to the transponder.
b. The antenna coil receives signal from the transponder.

(3)If a vehicle stays under extremely hot or cold environment, the detection range may be reduced. It will be
restored at the normal temperature.
(4) When heavy cargo is loaded in rear cargo area, it changes the vehicle balance, which reduces the detection
range.
(5) When other vehicle's horn, motor cycle engine noise, or other ultra - sonic wave sources are near.
(6) Under heavy rain.
(7) When reversing towards a vertical wall and the gap between the vehicle and the wall is 15cm. (Alarm may
sound despite the absence of a barrier)
(8) If radio antenna is installed at the rear.
(9) If the vehicle rear wiring is re- routed or electrical component is added at the rear part.
(10) Vehicle balance is changed due to the replacement of the rear spring.
(11) The unit will operate normally when the vehicle speed is 5km/h or less.
Above this speed, the unit may not operate normally
8. Check the rear bumper for installation condition and deformation. If installed improperly or the sensor orientation is
deviated, it may cause malfunction.
9. Be careful not to apply shock during sensor installation on the transmission or reception unit.
10. When adding electrical devices or modifying harness at the rear body of the vehicle, ensure not to change the
transmission and reception unit wiring.
Tagging the transmission side and reception side, it may cause malfunction.
11. High power radio transmitter (above 10W) may cause malfunction. Do not install it on the vehicle.
12. Be careful that excessive heat or sharp objects shall not touch ultrasonic sensor surface.
Do not cover the sensor opening or press the sensor.
