DTC B27A7: Open in Inside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Oscillator Circuit [09/2014 - ]: 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. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment).

      OK

      Connectors are properly connected.

    Result:  NG

    NG 

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY 

    Result:  OK

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the N94 and N98 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
    2. Disconnect the T37 No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (inside luggage compartment) connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N98-4 (CLG7) - T37-1 (ANTE7) Always Below 1 Ω
      N98-3 (CG7B) - T37-3 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      N94-1 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      N98-4 (CLG7) or T37-1 (ANTE7) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N98-3 (CG7B) or T37-3 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    Result:  NG

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result:  OK

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (OUTPUT TO NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY)
