    Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU) Sends country specification information signals to the lane departure warning camera.

  2. FUNCTION


    1. Lane Departure Warning Camera


      1. The lane departure warning camera captures a view of the road up to approximately 15 m (49 ft.) ahead of the camera.

      2. The lane departure warning camera detects lane markers and calculates the radius to the center of the lane, the vehicle center position disparity among the distances from each left and right lane marker and the angle disparity between the vehicle traveling direction and each left and right lane marker.

        Tech Tips

        When one of the following operations is conducted, the lane departure warning camera angle must be adjusted. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.


        • The lane departure warning camera is removed and reinstalled or replaced.

        • Parts relating to the tires or suspension are replaced or adjusted.

        • Excessive force is applied to the lane departure warning camera.

      3. The lane departure warning camera calculates the estimated position which the front wheel will reach based on the information collected, vehicle speeds and front wheel positions. When the lane departure warning camera determines that the front wheel is about to cross the lane marker, the lane departure warning camera activates the lane departure alert system, displays a warning indicator on the multi-information display and sounds the buzzer.

      4. The lane departure alert system does not operate if the vehicle approaches the lane marker (but does not cross it), as long as the vehicle remains parallel with the lane marker.

  3. OPERATING CONDITION


    1. Operating Conditions of Lane Departure Alert System

      Operation Condition
      Operating/Resume

      The lane departure warning function is activated when all of the following conditions are met:


      • The lane-keeping assist main switch is on. (When the lane-keeping assist main switch is pressed to turn on the lane departure alert system, the LDA indicator illuminates.)

      • The vehicle speed is approximately 50 km/h (32 mph) or more.

      • Lane markers are detected.

      • No turn signal command is detected.

      • System malfunction is not detected.
      Suspended

      The lane departure alert system is suspended when any one of the following conditions is met:


      • The vehicle speed is not lower than 50 km/h (32 mph).

      • A turn signal command is detected.

      • No lane markers are detected.

      • Immediately after the lane departure warning is activated.
      Canceled

      The lane departure alert system is stopped when any one of the following conditions is met:


      • The lane-keeping assist main switch is off.

      • The lane departure alert system is malfunctioning.

      • The temperature of the lane departure warning camera is abnormal.

      The lane departure alert system resumes when the following conditions are met:


      • The conditions to start operation listed above are satisfied.

      • The lane departure alert system condition returns to normal.

      • The power switch is turned off and on (IG) again to ensure normal operation, after the lane departure alert system has been stopped by a system malfunction.

  4. OPERATION


    1. Combination Meter Assembly


      1. The combination meter assembly illuminates the indicator lights or displays an indicator on the multi-information display, and sounds a buzzer (which is built into the combination meter assembly) in accordance with the respective condition.

  5. DIAGNOSIS


    1. If a malfunction is detected in the lane departure alert system, the lane departure warning camera cancels the lane departure alert system, turns off the LDA indicator light, illuminates the master warning light, sounds the buzzer in the combination meter assembly, and displays a message on the multi-information display to inform the driver of the malfunction.

    2. At the same time, the malfunction is stored in memory as a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). When a Techstream is connected to the DLC3, the DTC can be read. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
