VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM (for Vacuum Brake Booster), Diagnostic DTC:C1232, C1243, C1245, C1279

DTC Code DTC Name
C1232 Acceleration Sensor Stuck Malfunction
C1243 Acceleration Sensor Stuck Malfunction
C1245 Acceleration Sensor Output Malfunction
C1279 Acceleration Sensor Output Voltage Malfunction (Test Mode DTC)

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU receives signals from the yaw rate and acceleration sensor via the CAN communication system.

The yaw rate sensor has a built-in acceleration sensor and detects the vehicle's condition using 2 circuits (GL1, GL2).

If there is trouble in the bus lines between the yaw rate and acceleration sensor and the CAN communication system, DTCs U0123 (malfunction in CAN communication with the yaw rate sensor) and U0124 (malfunction in CAN communication with the acceleration sensor) are stored.

These DTCs are also stored when calibration has not been completed.

DTC C1279 can be cleared when the yaw rate and acceleration sensor sends a yaw rate and/or acceleration signal or test mode ends. DTC C1279 is stored only in test mode.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1232 At a vehicle speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or more, either GL1 or GL2 (input signal) does not change for 30 seconds or more.
  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor

  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor circuit

C1243 While the vehicle speed changes from 30 km/h (19 mph) to 0 km/h (0 mph), the condition that the values of GL1 and GL2 do not change by 0.0294 G or more occurs 16 times or more.
  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor

  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor circuit

C1245 At a vehicle speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the difference between the forward and backward G calculated from the acceleration sensor value and that calculated from the vehicle speed exceeds 0.35 G for 60 seconds or more.
  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor

  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor circuit

  • Sensor installation

C1279 Stored only during test mode.
  • Yaw rate and acceleration sensor

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note


  • When replacing the yaw rate and acceleration sensor, perform calibration Click here.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips

When DTC U0123, U0124 and/or U0126 is output together with DTC C1232, C1243 and/or C1245, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by DTC U0123, U0124 and/or U0126 first Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK DTC


    1. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    2. Turn the ignition switch off.

    3. At a speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, drive the vehicle, turn the steering wheel and decelerate (depress the brake pedal) the vehicle.

    4. Turn the ignition switch to ON again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output Click here.

    5. Check if DTCs for zero point calibration of the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (C1210) or for zero point calibration of the acceleration sensor (C1336) are output Click here.

  2. CHECK YAW RATE AND ACCELERATION SENSOR INSTALLATION


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Check that the yaw rate and acceleration sensor is installed properly Click here.

      OK
      The sensor is tightened to the specified torque.
      The sensor is not tilted.

    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (IG, GND)


    1. Disconnect the G52 yaw rate and acceleration sensor connector.
