*1: for Navigation Receiver Type
*2: for Radio and Display Type
GENERAL
This system has a front television camera assembly to display the front view of the vehicle on the navigation receiver assembly*1 or radio and display receiver assembly*2.
This system consists of the following components:
Parking assist ECU
Front television camera assembly
Steering pad switch assembly (wide view front and side monitor switch)
Navigation receiver assembly*1
Radio and display receiver assembly*2
Spiral cable sub-assembly
Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

ECM
This system is equipped with a self-diagnosis system, which is operated from a designated window that appears on the display panel, just as in the navigation system or audio and visual system.
FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS
The parking assist ECU controls the system by using information from the following components.
| Item | Function |
|---|---|
| Front Television Camera Assembly | Generates a video feed showing the front side of the vehicle and transmits the video to the parking assist ECU. |
| Steering Pad Switch Assembly (Wide View Front and Side Monitor Switch) | Operating the switch sends a signal to the parking assist ECU. |
| Parking Assist ECU |
|
| Navigation Receiver Assembly*1 Radio and Display Receiver Assembly*2 |
|
| Spiral Cable Sub-assembly | Detects the angle of the steering wheel and sends the resulting signals to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
| Skid Control ECU (Brake Actuator Assembly) | Sends the inner brake information and ABS ACT information to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
| Four Wheel Drive Control ECU | Sends the L4 condition signal to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
| ECM | Sends the vehicle condition, 2WD/4WD information and shift position information to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
OPERATION EXPLANATION
The front and side monitor main switch ON signal is sent from the main switch to the parking assist ECU.
After receiving the front and side monitor main switch ON signal, the parking assist ECU switches the display signal to the wide view front monitor system.
