INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR DIAGNOSIS CODE
Code No. 27 SC-ECU power supply system (abnormal
voltage drop)Probable cause
This diagnosis code will be set if the SC-ECU power supply voltage drops below
a certain level.DMalfunction of battery
DMalfunction of harness or connector
DMalfunction of the SC-ECU
Caution
If the system voltage drops during inspection, this code will be output to indicate a current problem.
And correct problem diagnosis will not be possible. Before carrying out the following procedure,
check the battery and recharge it if necessary.
