DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P1631

DTC Code DTC Name
P1631 Communication Error from ECM to VSC

DESCRIPTION

The ECM sends signals such as A/T information signals, dynamic radar cruise control operation signals, brake operation demand signals, and buzzer operation demand signals to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) when the dynamic radar cruise control is operating. The ECM is the only component that has a function to store and output DTCs in the dynamic radar cruise control system. Therefore, if the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) detects a communication error from the ECM, it sends a malfunction signal back to the ECM.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P1631 While the dynamic radar cruise control is either preparing for operation or operating, if the ECM continuously receives a logical error signal from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) for a certain amount of time, the ECM stores this DTC.

  • Communication circuit

  • ECM

  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Perform the following to make sure that the DTC detection conditions are met.

      Tech Tips

      If the detection conditions are not met, the malfunction cannot be detected.


      1. Drive the vehicle at a speed for which cruise control operation is possible.

      2. Turn the dynamic radar cruise control system on using the cruise control switch (ON-OFF button).

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Cruise Control / Trouble Codes.

    5. Check for DTCs Click here.
