SMART ENTRY AND START SYSTEM(for Entry Function), Diagnostic DTC:B27A1

DTC Code DTC Name
B27A1 Open in Driver Side Electrical Antenna Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the trigger switch is pressed, the certification ECU (smart key control ECU assembly) generates a request signal and sends it through the front door outside handle assembly (for Driver Door) (electrical key antenna).

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 front door outside handle assembly (for Driver Door) (between terminals CLG5 and ANT1, or terminals CG5B and ANT2).

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area Note
B27A1 Open in Driver Side Electrical Antenna Circuit An open circuit is detected in the circuit between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly (for Driver Door) (CLG5 - ANT1, CG5B - ANT2) (This is detected by the malfunction detection circuit in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)) (1 trip detection logic*).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

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.

    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.

  • After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing the "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION


    1. Turn the engine switch off.

    2. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly (for Driver Door).

      OK
      Connectors are properly connected.

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - FRONT DOOR OUTSIDE HANDLE ASSEMBLY (FOR DRIVER DOOR))


    1. Disconnect the G17 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

    2. Disconnect the J7 front door outside handle assembly (for Driver Door) connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G17-9 (CLG5) - J7-3 (ANT1) Always Below 1 Ω
      G17-25 (CG5B) - J7-6 (ANT2) Always Below 1 Ω
      G17-9 (CLG5) or J7-3 (ANT1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      G17-25 (CG5B) or J7-6 (ANT2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
