DTC B27A5: Open in Front Floor Electrical Key Oscillator Circuit [12/2012 - ]: Procedure

  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION 
    1. Turn the engine 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.

      Result Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU - NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the G82 and G84 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
    2. Disconnect the G45 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
      G84-3 (CLG5) - G45-1 (ANTE5) Always Below 1 Ω

      G82-11 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      G84-3 (CLG5) or G45-1 (ANTE5) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      G84-2 (CG5B) or G45-3 (CLGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) (OUTPUT TO NO. 1 INDOOR ELECTRICAL KEY ANTENNA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Connect the G82 and G84 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
