DTC B27A7: Open in Inside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Oscillator Circuit: 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 (rear floor).

      OK

      Connectors are properly connected.

    NG → CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the G53 and G55 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
    2. Disconnect the M16 No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor) connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G53-4 (CLG7) - M16-1 (ANTE7) Always Below 1 Ω
      G53-3 (CG7B) - M16-3 (CLGB) Always Below 1 Ω
      G55-1 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      G53-4 (CLG7) or M16-1 (ANTE7) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      G53-3 (CG7B) or M16-3 (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. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Connect the G53 and G55 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.

    2. Connect the M16 No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor) connector.
    3. Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.

      OK

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Tool Setting Specified Condition
      G53-4 (CLG7) - G55-1 (E) Proceed:
      1. Power switch off
      2. Electrical key transmitter sub-assembly not inside vehicle
      3. Door is open
      4. Door is closed
      5. Within 30 seconds
      2 V/DIV., 500 ms/DIV. Pulse generation (See waveform)
      G53-3 (CG7B) - G55-1 (E) Proceed:
      1. Power switch off
      2. Electrical key transmitter sub-assembly not inside vehicle
      3. Door is open
      4. Door is closed
      5. Within 30 seconds
      2 V/DIV., 500 ms/DIV. Pulse generation (See waveform)

    NG → See step   7 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. REPLACE NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY (REAR FLOOR) 
    1. Temporarily replace the No. 3 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (rear floor) with a new or known good one. Refer to REMOVAL .

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  5. CLEAR DTC 
    1. Clear the DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Check for DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .

      OK

      DTC B27A7 is not output.

    NG → See step   7 

    OK → END (NO. 3 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY (REAR FLOOR) WAS DEFECTIVE) 

  7. REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY). Refer to  REMOVAL
