DESCRIPTION
After replacing VSC-related components, clearing and reading the sensor calibration data is necessary.
Follow the chart to perform calibration.
| Part Replaced | Necessary Operation |
|---|---|
| Master Cylinder Solenoid (Skid Control ECU) |
|
| Yaw Rate and Acceleration Sensor |
|
| Spiral Cable Sub-assembly (Steering Angle Sensor) |
|
PERFORM YAW RATE AND ACCELERATION SENSOR AND STEERING ANGLE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION AND ACQUIRE INFORMATION ON WHETHER KINETIC DYNAMIC SUSPENSION SYSTEM EXISTS (When Using Intelligent Tester)
Note
Make sure that CAN communication between the stabilizer control ECU and master cylinder solenoid (skid control ECU) is properly functioning. In "Check Installed Systems (ECUs and Sensors) That Use CAN Communication" under Diagnosis System in CAN communication system, confirm that the bus lines to the stabilizer control ECU are connected for vehicles with a kinetic dynamic suspension system and that the bus lines to the stabilizer control ECU are not connected for vehicles without a kinetic dynamic suspension system.
If calibration is performed while there is a CAN communication malfunction between the stabilizer control ECU and master cylinder solenoid (skid control ECU), the master cylinder solenoid (skid control ECU) operates as if there is no kinetic dynamic suspension system even if the vehicle is equipped with one.
If information about whether the kinetic dynamic suspension system exists is not acquired, the slip indicator light illuminates and the vehicle stability control system does not operate.
In order to acquire information about whether the kinetic dynamic suspension system exists, put the system in test mode and leave the vehicle stationary for 7 seconds or more.
While obtaining the zero points, keep the vehicle stationary and do not vibrate, tilt, move, or shake it (do not start the engine).
Be sure to perform this procedure on a level surface (with an inclination of less than 1%).
Clear the zero point calibration data and information about whether the kinetic dynamic suspension system exists.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Check that the steering wheel is centered.
for Manual Transmission:
Check that the shift lever is in neutral and apply the parking brake.
for Automatic Transmission:
Check that the shift lever is in P.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Utility / Reset Memory.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Perform zero point calibration and acquire information about whether the kinetic dynamic suspension system exists.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Check that the steering wheel is centered.
for Manual Transmission:
Check that the shift lever is in neutral and apply the parking brake.
for Automatic Transmission:
Check that the shift lever is in P.
Note
DTCs C1210 (Zero Point Calibration of Yaw Rate Sensor Undone), C1336 (Zero Point Calibration of Acceleration Sensor Undone) and C120A (ECU Initial Setting Incomplete) are stored if the shift lever is not in P (for Automatic Transmission) or the parking brake is not applied (for Manual Transmission).
If a DTC is output that indicates zero point calibration is incomplete, repeat the procedure starting at the step for clearing the zero point calibration data and system information.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Utility / Test Mode.
With the ignition switch turned to ON, keep the vehicle stationary on a level surface for 7 seconds or more.
Check that the slip indicator light comes on for several seconds and then blinks in the test mode pattern (0.125 seconds on and 0.125 seconds off).
Tech Tips
If the slip indicator light does not blink, perform zero point calibration again.
The zero point calibration is performed only once after the system enters test mode.
Calibration cannot be performed again until the stored data is cleared.
Turn the ignition switch off and disconnect the intelligent tester.
Drive the vehicle straight ahead at 40 km/h (25 mph) or more for at least 10 seconds.
