C1A4A

Skid Control Buzzer Circuit

While the vehicle speed is 36 km/h (22 mph) or more and the dynamic radar cruise control system is operating, the forward recognition camera detects a malfunction in the skid control buzzer circuit for approximately 0.4 seconds or more.
  • Skid control buzzer
  • Millimeter wave radar sensor assembly
  • Forward recognition camera
  • Harness or connector

Does not come on

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
  • When replacing the forward recognition camera, make sure to replace it with a new one. If a device which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the forward recognition camera will not match the information from the vehicle, and 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 Learning.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK FOR DTCs (PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM)

(a) Check for DTCs of the pre-collision system.

Click here HINT:

HINT:

The dynamic radar cruise control system only stores DTC C1A4A when the vehicle speed reaches 36 km/h (22 mph), however the pre-collision system stores this DTC at any vehicle speed. If DTC C1A4A is stored by the pre-collision system, perform troubleshooting of the pre-collision system first.
