DESCRIPTION
When the millimeter wave radar sensor is replaced with a new one, it acquires the country specification information from the driving support ECU. Also, when the driving support ECU is replaced with a new one, it receives the country specification information from the combination meter. When the country specification information in the sensor and ECU do not match, DTC C1A0A is output.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| C1A0A | While initial check is running, engine switch is on (IG), country specification information in driving support ECU and millimeter wave radar sensor do not match for 1 second. |

| Country# (F Radar Sens) | Millimeter wave radar sensor country signal / JPN, NA, EURO, AUS, SAFC, OTHER, TWN, CHINA, THAI, GCC, NOFIX | Actual country code | - |
| Result | Proceed to |
|---|---|
| Country specification information for vehicle and millimeter wave radar sensor match | A |
| Country specification information for vehicle and millimeter wave radar sensor do not match | B |
Tech Tips
The country specification information stored in the driving support ECU is determined by the country specification information stored in the main body ECU. If the country specification information for the millimeter wave radar sensor matches the vehicle, the country specification information for the main body ECU and driving support ECU is incorrect and the main body ECU and driving support ECU need to be replaced.
