DESCRIPTION
When the trigger switch is pressed, the certification ECU (smart key control ECU assembly) generates a request signal and sends it through the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front bumper RH). The electrical key antenna transmits the received signal within an area of approximately 0.7 m (2.30 ft.) from the driver side door in order to detect the person carrying the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.
DTC B27A1 is stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) when an open circuit is detected between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front bumper RH) (between terminals CLG1 and ANTE1, or terminals CG1B and CLGB).
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | DTC Output Confirmation Operation |
|---|---|---|---|
| B27A1 | An open circuit is detected in the circuit between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front bumper RH) (CLG1 - ANTE1, CG1B - CLGB) (This is detected by the malfunction detection circuit in the certification ECU [smart key ECU assembly]) (1 trip detection logic*). |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
The smart entry and start system (for Entry Function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting Click here. Troubleshoot the smart entry and start system (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
When using the GTS with the vehicle engine switch off, connect the GTS to the vehicle and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select the Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start(CAN). While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the smart entry and start system (for Entry Function) precaution Click here.
After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing the "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".
PROCEDURE
