ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B279A

DTC Code DTC Name
B279A Theft Deterrent System Communication Line High Fixation

DESCRIPTION

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

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B279A When the communication line (EFIO - IMI) between power management control ECU (HV CPU) and ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) is stuck high output.

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Power management control ECU (HV CPU)

  • ID code box (Immobiliser code ECU)

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ID CODE BOX - POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROL ECU (HV CPU))


    1. Disconnect the ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) connector.

    2. 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
      E22-6 (EFIO) - E112-21 (IMI) Always Below 1 Ω
      E112-21 (IMI) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E112-21 (IMI) - Body ground Always Below 1 V
