DTC B2799 ENGINE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
MALFUNCTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This DTC is output when the ECM detects errors in communication between the transponder key ECU assy
and the ECM, or in the communication lines.
This DTC is also output when an engine start is attempted while the ECU communication ID between the
transponder key ECU assy and the ECM is different.
Before troubleshooting for this DTC, make sure that there is no DTC detected in the transponder key ECU.
If there is a key code-related DTC detected in the transponder key ECU assy, repair it first.
DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK WIRE HARNESS (TRANSPONDER KEY ECU ASSY - ECM)
(TRANSPONDER KEY ECU ASSY OR ECM - BODY GROUND)
(a) Disconnect the T14 ECU and E6 ECM connectors.
Wire Harness Side
(b) Measure the resistance between the wire harness side
T14 connectors.
Transponder Key ECU Assy Standard:
Symbols (Terminal No.) Specified Condition
EFIO (T14-6) - IMI (E6-27) Below 1 Ω
EFII (T14-7) - IMO (E6-26) Below 1 Ω
(c) Measure the resistance between the T14 or E6 wire har-
ness side connector and the body ground.
Standard:
Symbols (Terminal No.) Specified Condition
E6
EFIO (T14-6) or IMI (E6-27) -
ECM 10 kΩ or higher
Body ground
EFII (T14-7) or IMO (E6-26) -
10 kΩ or higher
Body ground

2 CHECK OPERATION OF TRANSPONDER KEY AMPLIFIER
(a) After replacing the transponder key amplifier with a normally functioning amplifier, check that the en-
gine starts.
