Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Cruise Control / Lane Departure Alert System / Front Camera Module Incorrect Axial Gap (C1AA8,C1AA9)

DESCRIPTION

If the forward recognition camera detects that the forward recognition camera axis has deviated, DTC C1AA8 is stored. Also, if Forward Recognition Camera Axis Adjustment is not performed after installing the forward recognition camera, DTC C1AA9 is stored.

DTC No.	Detection Item	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
C1AA8	Front Camera Module Incorrect Axial Gap	3 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON, the forward recognition camera detects forward recognition camera axis deviation.	Forward recognition camera Windshield glass Wheel alignment
C1AA9	Front Camera Module Beam Axis Not Adjusted	When the vehicle is being driven at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mph) or more 3 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON, the forward recognition camera detects that Forward Recognition Camera Axis Adjustment have not been completed.	Forward recognition camera adjustment has not been performed or has not been completed normally. Forward recognition camera

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing the forward recognition camera, always replace it with a new one. If a forward recognition camera which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the forward recognition camera will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.
If the forward recognition camera has been replaced with a new one, be sure to perform Forward Recognition Camera Axis Adjustment.
