HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

  • Use these procedures to troubleshoot the pre-collision system.
  • *: Use the Techstream.

PROCEDURE

1.

VEHICLE BROUGHT TO WORKSHOP

2.

INSPECT AUXILIARY BATTERY VOLTAGE

(a) Measure the auxiliary battery voltage with the power switch off.

Standard Voltage:

11 to 14 V

If the voltage is below 11 V, replace or recharge the auxiliary battery before proceeding to the next step.

(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(d) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(e) Turn the Techstream on.

(f) Turn the cruise control main switch on.

(g) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Pre-Collision 2 / Utility / Front Beam Axis Misalignment Reading.

(h) Check the amount of misalignment and make a note.

Body Electrical > Pre-Collision 2 > Utility

Front Beam Axis Misalignment Reading

(i) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Pre-Collision 2 / Utility / Front Beam Axis Offset Reading.

(j) Check the amount of misalignment and make a note.

Body Electrical > Pre-Collision 2 > Utility

Tester Display

Front Beam Axis Offset Reading

(k) Calculate the "Dealership Axis Offset Angle (with On-line Calibration Angle)" using the values "Front Beam Axis Misalignment Reading" and "Front Beam Axis Offset Reading".

(1) "Dealership Axis Offset Angle (with On-line Calibration Angle)" = "Front Beam Axis Misalignment Reading" - "Front Beam Axis Offset Reading"

Standard:

Dealership Axis Offset Angle (with On-line Calibration Angle)

Vertical

-2.2 to 1.6 deg.

Horizontal

-0.6 to 0.6 deg.

Result

Proceed to

The dealership axis offset angle (with on-line calibration angle) is within the specified range.

A

The dealership axis offset angle (with on-line calibration angle) is not within the specified range.

INSPECT WARNING LIGHT

(a) Check the condition of the warning lights on the combination meter assembly.

Result

Proceed to

Only the PCS warning light is illuminated

A

The PCS warning light is not illuminated

The PCS warning light and other warning lights are illuminated or blinking

B

6.

INSPECT MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY

(a) Check if a pre-collision system warning message is displayed on the multi-information display in the combination meter assembly.

Result

Proceed to

"Pre-Collision System Malfunction Visit Your Dealer" is displayed

A

Any of the following messages is displayed:

  • "Pre-Collision System Unavailable"
  • "Pre-Collision System Unavailable Clean Sensor"
  • "Front Camera Unavailable"
  • "Front Camera Unavailable Remove Debris On Windshield"
