ACCELERATION SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION AND STORE SYSTEM INFORMATION MEMORIZATION

NOTICE:

  • After replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization.
  • After replacing or reinstalling the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly), perform acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization after performing "Reset Memory".
  • As the acceleration sensor zero point cannot be stored again until the current zero point is cleared, perform "Reset Memory" and acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization after replacing or removing and installing the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly).
  • While obtaining the zero point, keep the vehicle stationary and do not vibrate, tilt, move, or shake it.
  • Be sure to perform this procedure on a level surface (with an inclination of less than 0.45 degrees).
  • While obtaining the zero point, make sure the tire pressure is as specified and the vehicle is in full contact with the ground (not lifted up or loaded).

HINT:

When entering Dealer Mode (Calibration), the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) communicates with the forward recognition camera to judge whether the vehicle is equipped with the pre-collision system. Therefore, do not exit Dealer Mode (Calibration) within 5 seconds of entering Dealer Mode (Calibration).

(a) Clear the zero point calibration data and system information.

(1) Turn the engine switch off.

(2) Apply the parking brake.

(3) Check that the shift lever is in P.

(4) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(5) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(6) Turn the Techstream on.

(7) Select the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) to clear the zero point calibration data using the Techstream. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Brake/EPB / Utility / Reset Memory.

Reset Memory

(8) Using the Techstream, perform "Reset Memory".

NOTICE:

After perform "Reset Memory", the ABS warning light, brake warning light / red (malfunction) and slip indicator light illuminate. If the vehicle is driven with the memory cleared, DTCs C124A00 and C051D54 will be stored.

(b) Perform acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization.

HINT:

  • Acceleration sensor zero point calibration and store system information memorization are automatically performed immediately after Dealer Mode (Calibration) is entered.
  • If store system information memorization has not yet been performed, the slip indicator light will remain on and DTC C124A00 will be stored.
  • If acceleration sensor zero point calibration is not successful, the slip indicator light will remain on and DTC C051D54 will be stored.

(1) Turn the engine switch off.

(2) Apply the parking brake.

(3) Check that the shift lever is in P.

(4) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(5) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(6) Check that the steering wheel is centered.

(7) Turn the Techstream on.

(8) Switch the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) to calibration using the Techstream. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Brake/EPB / Utility / Calibration.

Chassis > Brake/EPB > Utility

Tester Display

Calibration

(9) Using the Techstream, perform "Calibration" and enter Dealer Mode (Calibration).

(10) Confirm that the ABS warning light and slip indicator light indicate the Dealer Mode pattern (blinking at 0.25 seconds intervals).

HINT:

  • After "Calibration" has successfully completed, the ABS warning light and slip indicator light indicate the Dealer Mode pattern (blinking at 0.25 seconds intervals).
  • The slip indicator light may illuminate for approximately 7 seconds before learning successfully completes.
  • When entering Dealer Mode (Calibration), if the parking brake is engaged, the parking brake indicator light (red) will illuminate, and if the parking brake is not engaged, the parking brake indicator light (red) will blink in the Dealer Mode pattern (blinking at 0.25 seconds intervals).
  • Do not exit Dealer Mode (Calibration) within 5 seconds of entering Dealer Mode (Calibration). If Dealer Mode (Calibration) is exited within 5 seconds of entering Dealer Mode (Calibration), DTC U023A87 may be stored. If DTC U023A87 is output after exiting Dealer Mode (Calibration), enter Dealer Mode (Calibration) again, wait at least 5 seconds, then recheck for DTCs.

(11) Turn the engine switch off.

(12) Disconnect the Techstream.

ALL READINESS

HINT:

  • With "All Readiness", you can check whether or not the DTC judgment has been completed by using the Techstream.
  • You should check "All Readiness" after simulating malfunction symptoms or for validation after finishing repairs.

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
