DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area MIL Memory Note
P05A27E Active Grille Air Shutter "A" Actuator Stuck On

The following condition is met and the ECM receives a malfunction signal 17 times* (2 trip detection logic):


  • Grille shutter opening operation is performed for 11 seconds or more and the ECM receives a malfunction signal once or more.

  • Radiator shutter sub-assembly

  • Swing grille actuator assembly

 Does not come on DTC stored SAE Code: P05A3
P05A27F Active Grille Air Shutter "A" Actuator Stuck Off

The following condition is met and the ECM receives a malfunction signal 17 times* (2 trip detection logic):


  • Grille shutter closing operation is performed for 11 seconds or more and the ECM receives a malfunction signal once or more.

  • Radiator shutter sub-assembly

  • Swing grille actuator assembly

 Does not come on DTC stored SAE Code: P05A3

Tech Tips

*: For every 65 ms that the ECM receives a grille shutter system malfunction signal from the grille shutter ECU (swing grille actuator assembly) the ECM determines it has received the signal 1 time. If the ECM determines the malfunction signal has been received 17 consecutive times (the signal is received for approximately 1 second continuously), it will store a DTC.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If the grille shutter ECU (swing grille actuator assembly) detects that the grille shutter motor (swing grille actuator assembly) is performing an open or close operation for longer than the threshold, it will output a malfunction signal to the ECM and the ECM will store a DTC.

Detection Condition DTC No.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

In order to ensure safety, before performing troubleshooting or removing the swing grille actuator assembly or radiator shutter sub-assembly, change the grille shutter control mode to maintenance mode.

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
