ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B279A

DESCRIPTION

If the communication line (EFIO - IMI) to the certification ECU assembly (smart key ECU assembly)*1 or ID code box (immobiliser code ECU)*2 is stuck high output (e. g. shorted to +B), the power management control ECU (HV CPU) stores this DTC.

      *2	Front view of wire harness connector (to Power Management Control ECU (HV CPU))

      Disconnect the power management control ECU (HV CPU) connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition L62-35 (EFIO) - L6-21 (IMI) Always Below 1 Ω L6-21 (IMI) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition L6-21 (IMI) - Body ground Always Below 1 V

   
   

   NG

   REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

   OK

4. CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (WAVEFORM)

   
   

   1. Reconnect the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

   2. Reconnect the power management control ECU (HV CPU) connector.

      

   3. Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.

      Waveform (Reference)
      Item Content Terminal No. (Symbol) L62-35 (EFIO) - L62-15 (E) Tool Setting 5 V/DIV., 50 msec./DIV. Condition Power switch on (IG)

      OK
      Waveform is output normally (see illustration).
