DTC B27A8: Open in Outside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Antenna Circuit: Procedure

  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and the outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side).

      OK

      Connectors are properly connected.

    NG → CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - OUTSIDE ELECTRICAL KEY OSCILLATOR) 
    1. Disconnect the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
    2. Disconnect the outside electrical key oscillator (for rear side) connector.
