DTC    B27A1    Open in Driver Side Electrical Antenna Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and sends it to the electrical key oscillator built into the front door outside handle assembly (for driver side) at 0.25-second intervals. To detect a key near the driver door, the front door outside handle assembly (for driver side) creates a detection area with a radius of approximately 1.0 m (3.28 ft.) from the driver door at 0.25-second intervals.
DTC B27A1 is detected by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) if an open circuit is detected between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and front door outside handle assembly (for driver side) terminals (between CLG1 and ANT1, or CG1B and ANT2).

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
The entry and start system (for entry function) uses a LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting (Click here). Troubleshoot the entry and start system (for entry function) after confirming that the communication system is functioning properly.

1.CHECK CONNECTOR (CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION)
  1. Turn the power switch off.

  1. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and the front door outside handle assembly (for driver side).

    OK:
    Connectors are properly connected.
