Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual: Open in Outside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Antenna Circuit (B27A8)

Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual / Vehicle Interior / Theft Deterrent / Keyless Entry / Smart Access System With Push-button Start (for Entry Function) / Open in Outside Luggage Compartment Electrical Key Antenna Circuit (B27A8)

DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) generates a request signal and transmits the signal to the electrical key antenna (outside luggage compartment). For the electrical key antenna (outside luggage compartment) to detect when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is brought close to the vehicle, the received request signal is transmitted within approximately 1 m (3.28 ft.) of the back door. DTC B27A8 is stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) when an open is detected between the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and electrical key antenna (outside luggage compartment) (between terminals CLG8 and ANTE8, or terminals CG8B and CLGB).

  • When using the Techstream with the engine switch off, connect the Techstream to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the Techstream and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Access. While using the Techstream, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the Techstream and the vehicle.
  • Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to Precaution.
