Title: PRE-COLLISION: PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM: C1A50; Brake System Malfunction; 2018 - 2020 MY Camry [06/2017 - 10/2020]

DTC

C1A50

Brake System Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

When the pre-collision system is operating, the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly sends brake control signals to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).

If the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly receives a vehicle stability control system malfunction signal from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) via CAN communication, DTC C1A50 will be stored.

DTC No.

Trouble Area

C1A50

Brake System Malfunction

While the ignition switch is ON, the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly receives a vehicle stability control system malfunction signal from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) for 1 second or more.
  • Vehicle stability control system
  • Millimeter wave radar sensor assembly

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When replacing the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly, always replace it with a new one. If a millimeter wave radar sensor assembly which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.
  • If the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly has been replaced, be sure to perform millimeter wave radar sensor assembly adjustment.
