TOYOTA PARKING ASSIST-SENSOR SYSTEM(except Sedan), Diagnostic DTC:C1AE8

DTC Code DTC Name
C1AE8 Rear Right Center Sensor Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The No. 1 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH) is installed on the rear bumper. The ECU detects obstacles based on signals received from the No. 1 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH). If the No. 1 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH) has an open circuit or other malfunction, it will not function normally. (for Hatchback)

The No. 3 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH) is installed on the rear bumper. The ECU detects obstacles based on signals received from the No. 3 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH). If the No. 3 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH) has an open circuit or other malfunction, it will not function normally. (for Wagon)

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CLEARANCE WARNING ECU ASSEMBLY - NO. 1 ULTRASONIC SENSOR (REAR CENTER RH))


    1. Disconnect the E98 clearance warning ECU assembly connector.

    2. Disconnect the R6 No. 1 ultrasonic sensor (rear center RH) connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E98-1 (E1) - R6-1 (EI) Always Below 1 Ω
      E98-4 (BOR) - R6-3 (BI) Always Below 1 Ω
      E98-2 (S3) - R6-2 (SI) Always Below 1 Ω
      E98-1 (E1) - E98-2 (S3) Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E98-4 (BOR) - E98-2 (S3) Always 10 kΩ or higher
