Toyota Tacoma 2015-2018 Service Manual: Skid Control Buzzer Circuit (C1A4A)

Toyota Tacoma 2015-2018 Service Manual / Pre-collision / Pre-collision System / Skid Control Buzzer Circuit (C1A4A)

DESCRIPTION

The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly is connected to the forward recognition camera via CAN communication.

The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly operates the pre-collision alarm by sending a buzzer request signal to the skid control buzzer.

If the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly detects a malfunction in the skid control buzzer circuit, it stores DTC C1A4A.

DTC No.	Detection Item	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
C1A4A	Skid Control Buzzer Circuit	When the ignition switch is ON and the pre-collision alarm is operating, either of the following conditions is met: A buzzer request signal is sent to the skid control buzzer but the buzzer does not sound for 0.3 seconds or more. A buzzer request signal is not sent to the skid control buzzer but the buzzer sounds for 0.3 seconds or more.	Skid control buzzer Forward recognition camera Millimeter wave radar sensor assembly Wire harness or connector
