DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and transmits the signal to the NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment). For the NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) to detect when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is inside the luggage compartment, the signal from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) requesting a response from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is transmitted inside the luggage compartment. DTC B27A7 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 (inside luggage compartment) (between terminals CLG7 and ANTE7, or terminals CG7B and CLGB).

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 (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 power 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 (See page ).

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

  • The NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) has an antenna coil between ANTE7 and CLGB terminals.

    CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment).

      OK
      Connectors are properly connected.

    CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY)


    1. Disconnect the Q2 and H57 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.

    2. Disconnect the Q25 NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Q2-4 (CLG7) - Q25-1 (ANTE7) Always Below 1 Ω
      Q2-3 (CG7B) - Q25-3 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      H57-1 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      Q2-4 (CLG7) or Q25-1 (ANTE7) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Q2-3 (CG7B) or Q25-3 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
