DTC B27A5: Open in Front Floor Electrical Key Oscillator Circuit [08/2014 - ]: Procedure

  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor).

      OK

      Connectors are properly connected.

    NG → CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the H57 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
    2. Disconnect the H35 NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor) connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      H57-11 (CLG5) - H35-1 (ANTE5) Always Below 1 Ω
      H57-10 (CG5B) - H35-3 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      H57-1 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      H57-11 (CLG5) or H35-1 (ANTE5) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      H57-10 (CG5B) or H35-3 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (OUTPUT TO NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Connect the H57 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

    NG → See step   7 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. REPLACE NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY (FRONT FLOOR) 
    1. Temporarily replace the NO. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor) with a new or known good one. Refer to REMOVAL [08/2014 - ] .

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  5. CLEAR DTC 
    1. Clear the DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2014 - ] .

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Check for DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2014 - ] .

      OK

      DTC B27A5 is not output.

    NG → See step   7 

    OK → END (NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY (FRONT FLOOR) WAS DEFECTIVE) 

  7. REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY). Refer to  REMOVAL [08/2014 - ]
