DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when one of the following occurs: 1) the ECM detects errors in its own communication with the transponder key ECU assembly; 2) the ECM detects errors in the communication lines; or 3) the ECU communication ID between the transponder key ECU assembly and ECM is different and an engine start is attempted.

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area	DTC Output Confirmation Operation
B2799*1	One of the following conditions is met: Error in communication between ECM and transponder key ECU assembly. Error in communication lines. Communication ID is different during communication between ECM and transponder key ECU assembly.	Wire harness or connector ECM Transponder key ECU assembly	Start the engine and wait 10 seconds. After disconnecting and reconnecting the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, turn the ignition switch to ON and wait 10 seconds.
B279986*2	One of the following conditions is met: Error in communication between ECM and transponder key ECU assembly. Error in communication lines. Communication ID is different during communication between ECM and transponder key ECU assembly.	Wire harness or connector ECM Transponder key ECU assembly	Start the engine and wait 10 seconds. After disconnecting and reconnecting the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, turn the ignition switch to ON and wait 10 seconds.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

If the transponder key ECU assembly or ECM is replaced, refer to Registration (See page ).
After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

HINT:

If the transponder key ECU assembly DTC is output simultaneously, troubleshoot the transponder key ECU assembly DTCs first.

PROCEDURE

CLEAR DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs (See page ).

2.	CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Perform "DTC Output Confirmation Operation" procedure.

(b) Check for DTCs (See page OK: ).

OK:

DTC B2799*1 or B279986*2 is not output.

*1: for 2TR-FE
*2: for 2GR-FKS
