TOYOTA PARKING ASSIST-SENSOR SYSTEM(for Hatchback) OPERATION CHECK

  1. MALFUNCTION DISPLAY (MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY)

    1. Open circuit indication

      1. If there is an open circuit between the ultrasonic sensor and the clearance warning ECU assembly or a sensor is malfunctioning, the malfunction is displayed as shown in the illustration.

        E265119E01
        Tip:
        • When a malfunction is detected, bars for all detection areas shown in the illustration blink.

        • If a sensor has an open circuit, check for DTCs and troubleshoot according to each inspection procedure.

  2. DETECTION RANGE MEASUREMENT AND DISPLAY INSPECTION

    Note:

    While performing the following measurement and inspection, make sure to depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from moving. (The parking brake should be released.) (for EA66, EC60, EC61, EC65A, or EC69)

    The following measurement and inspection will be performed with the shift lever in a position other than P. Be sure to apply the parking brake and depress the brake pedal firmly to prevent the vehicle from moving. (for K311)

    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    2. Turn the back sonar or clearance sonar switch assembly on.

    3. Detection range measurement:

      1. When measuring the detection range of the front sonar, move the shift lever to any position other than P. (for K311)

      2. When measuring the detection range of the rear sonar, move the shift lever to R.

      3. Move a 60 mm (2.36 in.) diameter pole near each sensor to measure its detection range.

        Note:

        These detection ranges are applicable when positioning the 60 mm (2.36 in.) diameter pole parallel or perpendicular to the ground. The detection range varies depending on the measuring method and type of obstacle (such as walls).

        Tip:

        Have an assistant move the pole.
