PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1A48

DTC Code DTC Name
C1A48 G Sensor

DESCRIPTION

The pre-collision city sensor receives G sensor signals from the airbag sensor assembly (yaw rate and acceleration sensor) and outputs this DTC when a G sensor malfunction signal is received.

DTC No.

Trouble Area

C1A48

G Sensor

Once 4 seconds or more have elapsed after the ignition switch is turned to ON, the pre-collision city sensor continuously receives a G sensor malfunction signal from the yaw rate and acceleration sensor for 6 seconds or more while the IG voltage is 10 V or more.

  • Vehicle stability control system

  • Airbag sensor assembly (yaw rate and acceleration sensor)

  • Pre-collision city sensor

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note:
  • When replacing the pre-collision city sensor, replace it with a new one and be sure to initialize the settings. If a pre-collision city sensor which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the pre-collision city sensor will not match the information from the vehicle and, as a result, a DTC may be stored.

  • If the pre-collision city sensor has been replaced, or the windshield glass has been replaced or removed/installed, be sure to perform Pre-collision City Sensor Optical Axis Learning.

    Tip:

    Pre-collision City Sensor Optical Axis Learning can be performed by using either One Time Recognition or Sequential Recognition.
