| Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM (w/ Vacuum Brake Booster): VSC does not Operate or VSC does not Operate Correctly; 2019 - 2024 MY RAV4 RAV4 HV [11/2018 - ] | ||
|
VSC does not Operate or VSC does not Operate Correctly |
DESCRIPTION
When TRC (TRAC) or VSC is operating, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) blinks the slip indicator light to inform the driver that slippage occurred.
When a communication malfunction with the ECM is detected, TRC (TRAC) and VSC are disabled. Also, TRC (TRAC) and VSC are disabled when a DTC is stored.
When in VSC off mode, or TRC (TRAC) and VSC are disabled, the multi-information display in the combination meter assembly displays "TRC (TRAC) OFF message" and the VSC OFF indicator light illuminates to inform the driver.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
After replacing or reinstalling the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly), perform acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization after performing "Reset Memory".

PROCEDURE
|
1. |
BRAKE PROBLEM CHECK |
(a) Check whether the slip indicator light was illuminated when VSC did not operate.
OK:
The slip indicator light was illuminated.
HINT:
When a DTC is stored, the slip indicator light is illuminated and VSC does not operate due to the fail-safe function.
(b) Check whether the vehicle speed was 15 km/h (9 mph) or less when VSC did not operate.
OK:
The vehicle speed was 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.
HINT:
VSC does not operate when the vehicle speed is 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.
(c) Check whether the vehicle was driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.
OK:
The vehicle was not driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.
HINT:
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, as steering sensor zero point calibration is not performed below 15 km/h (9 mph), VSC will not operate until the vehicle is driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.

4. |
CHECK AIRBAG ECU ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION |
(a) Check that the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) has been installed properly.
Click here
OK:
The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) is tightened to the specified torque.
The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) is not installed in a tilted position.
| OK |
