| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| B27A1 | Open in Driver Side Electrical Antenna Circuit |
DESCRIPTION
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and transmits the signal to the front door outside handle assembly (driver side electrical key antenna) at intervals of 250 ms. For the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) to detect when the key is brought close to the vehicle, a signal requesting a response from the key is transmitted within approximately 1 m (3.28 ft.) of the driver side door at intervals of 250 ms. DTC B27A1 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 front door outside handle assembly (driver side electrical key antenna) (between terminals CLG1 and ANT1, or terminals CG1B and ANT2).
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | DTC Output Confirmation Operation |
|---|---|---|---|
| B27A1 | An open circuit is detected in the circuit between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly (CLG1 - ANT1, CG1B - ANT2) (This is detected by the malfunction detection circuit in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)) (1 trip detection logic*1). |

WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When using the GTS with the engine switch off to troubleshoot:
Connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5-second intervals until communication between the GTS and vehicle begins.
The entry and start system (for Entry Function) uses a LIN communication system and the 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 systems are functioning properly.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to the entry and start system (for Entry Function) Click here.
After repair, confirm DTC does not reoccur by performing the "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".
Front door outside handle assembly (for driver side door) has an antenna coil between ANT1 and ANT2 terminals.
PROCEDURE
CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION
Turn the engine switch off.
Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and the front door outside handle assembly.
