ENTRY AND START SYSTEM (for Entry Function), Diagnostic DTC:B27A8

DTC Code DTC Name
B27A8 Open in Outside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Antenna Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and sends it to the outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side). To detect the key near the driver door, the outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side) creates a detection area with radius of approximately 1.0 m (3.28 ft.) from the back door.

DTC B27A8 is detected by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) when an open circuit occurs between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side) terminals (between CLG8 and ANTE8, or CG8B and CLGB).

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B27A8 Open circuit detected between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly and outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side) terminals (between CLG8 and ANTE8, or CG8B and CLGB).

  • Outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side)

  • Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)

  • Wire harness or connector

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

The entry and start system (for entry function) uses a LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting Click here. Troubleshoot the entry and start system (for entry function) after confirming that the communication system is functioning properly.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and the outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side).

      OK
      Connectors are properly connected.

    NG

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - OUTSIDE ELECTRICAL KEY OSCILLATOR)


    1. Disconnect the L58 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

    2. Disconnect the R19 outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side) connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      L58-19 (CLG8) - R19-1 (ANTE8) Always Below 1 Ω
      L58-20 (CG8B) - R19-2 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      L58-19 (CLG8) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      L58-20 (CG8B) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      R19-1 (ANTE8) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      R19-2 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  3. INSPECT OUTSIDE ELECTRICAL KEY OSCILLATOR
