DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU receives signals from the yaw rate and acceleration sensor via the CAN communication system.
The yaw rate sensor has a built-in acceleration sensor and detects the vehicle's condition using 2 circuits (GL1, GL2).
If there are any problems in the bus lines between the yaw rate and acceleration sensor and the CAN communication system, DTCs U0123/62 (Lost Communication with Yaw Rate Sensor Module) and U0124/95 (Lost Communication with Lateral Acceleration Sensor Module) are output.
These DTCs are also output when calibration has not been completed.
DTC C1279/79 will be cleared when the yaw rate and acceleration sensor sends a yaw rate and/or acceleration signal or when Test Mode ends. DTC C1279/79 is output only in Test Mode.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When replacing the yaw rate and acceleration sensor, perform zero point calibration (Click here).

HINT:
When U0123/62 and/or U0124/95 is output together with C1234/34, C1243/43, C1244/44, C1245/45, and/or C1381/97, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by U0123/62 and/or U0124/95 first (Click here).

1.CHECK DTC
  1. Clear the DTCs (Click here).

  1. Turn the power switch off.

  1. Turn the power switch on (READY).

  1. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, turn the steering wheel, and decelerate (depress the brake pedal) the vehicle.

  1. Turn the power switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output (Click here).

  1. Check if DTC C1210/36 (Zero Point Calibration of Yaw Rate Sensor Undone) or C1336/98 (Zero Point Calibration of Acceleration Sensor Undone) is output (Click here).

2.CHECK YAW RATE AND ACCELERATION SENSOR INSTALLATION
  1. Turn the power switch off.

  1. Check that the yaw rate and acceleration sensor has been installed properly (Click here).

    OK:
    The sensor is tightened to the specified torque.
    The sensor is not tilted.
