SMART KEY SYSTEM (for Entry Function), Diagnostic DTC:B27A7

DTC Code DTC Name
B27A7 Open in Inside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Oscillator Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and transmits the signal to the No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment). For the No. 3 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. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) (between terminals CLG7 and ANTE7, or terminals CG7B and CLGB).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

  • The smart key 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 key system (for Entry Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.

  • When using the Techstream with the engine switch off to troubleshoot:

    Connect the Techstream to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5-second intervals until communication between the Techstream and vehicle begins.

  • Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the smart key system (for Entry Function) precaution Click here.

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

  • The No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) has an antenna coil between ANTE7 and CLGB terminals.

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 No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment).

      OK
      Connectors are properly connected.
    NG

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY)

    1. Disconnect the A43 and O1 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.

    2. Disconnect the N36 No. 3 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
      O1-9 (CLG7) - N36-1 (ANTE7) Always Below 1 Ω
      O1-8 (CG7B) - N36-3 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      A43-11 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      O1-9 (CLG7) or N36-1 (ANTE7) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      O1-8 (CG7B) or N36-3 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  3. CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (OUTPUT TO NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY)

    1. Connect the A43 and O1 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
