SFI SYSTEM(w/o Canister Pump Module) Brake Override System

DTC Code	DTC Name
	Brake Override System

DESCRIPTION

When the vehicle is being driven, depressing the accelerator pedal sensor assembly and brake pedal will activate the brake override system to restrict driving torque. The conditions for activating the brake override system as well as the items that are controlled are explained below.

Activation Conditions:

Vehicle is running at or above the specified speed.
When the accelerator pedal and brake pedal are depressed.

Note:

The vehicle may not enter the brake override system control due to the relation of the accelerator pedal angle and the vehicle's speed.

Items Controlled:

Driving torque is restricted.

Tip:

When this control is activated, the accelerator opening value is forcibly reduced to a fixed value. Therefore, the Accelerator Position value in the Data List is fixed regardless of the actual accelerator opening value (Accel Sens. No.1 Volt %).

Deactivation Conditions:

When the brake pedal or the accelerator pedal returns to some degree.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Inspection Method

Example:

Drive at 10 km/h (6.25 mph), depress the accelerator pedal by 1/2 to 3/4 and keep it in that position. Under these conditions, if the engine speed decreases to 1000 rpm when the brake pedal is depressed, then the brake override system has been activated.

CAUTION:

When carrying out the inspection, use a place where you are able to carry it out safely and also pay close attention to your surroundings.

Also, when driving make absolutely sure that all road traffic laws, such as speed limits, are observed.

Tip:

Under normal conditions, the Accelerator Position value changes in response to the Accel Sens. No.1 Volt % value. For more information on the numerical values, refer to the Data List.

If the Accelerator Position and Accel Sens. No.1 Volt % values in the Data List diverge and the Accelerator Position value in the Data List is fixed even though Accel Sens. No.1 Volt % is changing, check that this control is activated (use the GTS snapshot function to record data while driving the vehicle, and then confirm it after driving is completed).

Note:

The brake override system restricts driving torque if the brake pedal is depressed when driving with the accelerator pedal depressed. If a customer reports experiencing loss of torque after the accelerator and brake pedals have both been intentionally depressed, explain to the customer that this is not a malfunction, and that the customer should avoid depressing both the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time.

Example: While operating the accelerator pedal, the customer uses their left foot to operate the brake pedal.

PROCEDURE

CHECK DTC OUTPUT

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: System Select / Health Check.

Check the DTCs.

READ VALUE USING GTS (MASTER CYLINDER PRESSURE)

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Data List / Master Cylinder Pressure.

Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRC > Data List


Tester Display
Master Cylinder Pressure

Read the value displayed on the GTS.


GTS Display	Measurement Item/Range	Normal Condition
Master Cylinder Pressure	Master cylinder pressure sensor reading/ Min.: 0.00 MPa, Max.: 23.28 MPa	Brake pedal released: 0.00 to 1.76 MPa Reading increases when brake pedal is depressed

Check that the brake fluid pressure value of the "Master Cylinder Pressure" observed on the GTS changes when the brake pedal is depressed.

OK

When the pedal is depressed, the pressure displayed on the GTS increases.

Tip:
If the stop light switch assembly turns on too late, the start of brake override system control may be delayed; if it turns ON too soon, brake override system control may begin too early, so conduct inspection of the brake pedal support assembly and stop light switch assembly.
