| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| C1A11 | Front Radar Sensor Incorrect Axial Gap |
| C1A14 | Front Radar Sensor Beam Axis Not Adjusted |
DESCRIPTION
The forward recognition camera uses the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly to detect obstacles in front of the vehicle.
When the vehicle is determined to be driving in a straight line or on a gradual curve based on signals from the yaw rate sensor etc., the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly performs self diagnosis to check if the sensor beam axis has deviated from the vehicle movement direction. When the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly beam axis has deviated, the forward recognition camera detects this, and stores DTC C1A11.
After installing a new millimeter wave radar sensor assembly, if sensor beam axis adjustment is not performed, DTC C1A14 is stored.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| C1A11 | Front Radar Sensor Incorrect Axial Gap | 2 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG), misalignment of the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly is detected for approximately 5 seconds. |
|
| C1A14 | Front Radar Sensor Beam Axis Not Adjusted | 2 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG), incompletion of the millimeter wave radar sensor beam axis alignment is detected for approximately 5 seconds. |

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When replacing the forward recognition camera, always replace it with a new one. If a forward recognition camera which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the forward recognition camera will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.
If the forward recognition camera has been replaced with a new one, be sure to perform Forward Recognition Camera Learning.
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.
When the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly is replaced with a new one, adjustment of the radar sensor beam axis must be performed.
The forward recognition camera system uses the CAN communication system. First, confirm that there are no malfunction in the CAN communication system. Refer to How to Proceed with Troubleshooting.

CHECK FOR DTCs (FORWARD RECOGNITION CAMERA SYSTEM)
Clear the DTCs.
Make sure that the DTC detection conditions are met.
Tech Tips
If the conditions are not met, the system cannot detect the malfunction.
Check for DTCs.
Tech Tips
After performing the radar sensor beam axis adjustment, if the same DTC is output again after the DTC detection conditions are met, replace the forward recognition camera.
