DTC    C1A14    Front Radar Sensor Beam Axis Not Adjusted

DESCRIPTION

The driving support ECU uses the millimeter wave radar sensor to detect obstacles in front of the vehicle.
Based on this information, the driving support ECU sends pre-crash control operation signals.
When the vehicle is determined to be driving in a straight line or on a slow curve based on signals from the yaw rate sensor etc., the millimeter wave radar sensor performs a self diagnosis to check if the sensor beam axis is deviated from the vehicle movement direction. When the millimeter wave radar sensor beam axis is deviated, the driving support ECU detects this, and stores DTC C1A11.
After installing a new millimeter wave radar sensor, if the sensor beam axis adjustment is not performed, DTC C1A14 is stored.

DTC No.

When the power switch is on (IG), misalignment of the millimeter wave radar sensor is detected for approx. 1 second.
  1. Millimeter wave radar sensor
  2. Driving support ECU

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When the millimeter wave radar sensor is replaced with a new one, adjustment of the radar sensor beam axis must be performed (Click here).

1.ADJUST MILLIMETER WAVE RADAR SENSOR

  1. Check the millimeter wave radar sensor installation (Click here).

  1. Adjust the millimeter wave radar sensor (Click here).

2.CHECK DTC OUTPUT (PRE-CRASH SAFETY SYSTEM)

  1. Using the intelligent tester, enter the following menus: Body / Pre-Crash 2 / DTC.

  1. Clear the DTCs (Click here).

  1. Drive the vehicle.

  1. Recheck for DTCs.

    OK:
    DTC C1A11 or C1A14 is not output.

    HINT:
    After performing the radar beam axis adjustment, if the same DTC is output again after the DTC detection conditions are met, replace the driving support ECU.
