REPAIR INSTRUCTION > INITIALIZATION


NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, initialize the following system(s) after the cable is reconnected.

  1. Initialization procedures are below the table.
    System Name
    Power Window Control System
    Sliding Roof System
    Clearance Sonar System
    Variable Gear Ratio Steering System

RESET (INITIALIZE) POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR

NOTICE:
Resetting the power window regulator motor (initializing the pulse sensor) is necessary if: 1) the battery terminal cable is disconnected; 2) the power window regulator master switch, wire harness, power window regulator switch, window regulator, and power window regulator motor are replaced or removed/installed; 3) the DC/CUT or MPX-B fuses are replaced. If resetting is not performed, the (master) switch will not be able to operate the AUTO operation function, jam protection and remote UP/DOWN function.

  1. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

  2. Open the power window halfway by pressing the power window switch.

  3. Fully pull the switch up until the power window is fully closed and hold the switch for at least 1 second.

  4. Check that the AUTO UP/DOWN function operates normally.

    HINT:
    If the AUTO UP/DOWN function operates normally, reset operations are completed. If abnormal, perform the following 3 steps below.

  5. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal for 10 seconds or more.

  6. Reconnect the cable.

  7. Perform the first 4 steps above.

    HINT:
    If the remote UP/DOWN function does not operate after the conditions 1), 2), or 3) is satisfied, the power window regulator master switch may have a malfunction.


RESET SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR SUB-ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, or disconnecting the sliding roof drive gear or connector, sliding roof drive gear requires initialization of the pulse sensor. If a reset is not executed, the following functions do not operate: auto operation, jam protection function, key off operation, key-linked open and close, transmitter-linked open and close.

  1. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

  2. If the sliding roof is opened, close it fully.

  3. Push the open switch of the slide switch or the up switch of the tilt switch on the personal light, making the sliding roof operation as follows:
    Tilt up → Approximately 1 second → tilt down → slide open → slide close

  4. Sliding roof stops at the fully closed position.

  5. Finish the initialization.

  6. Check that the operation works normally with AUTO operation.

    NOTICE:
    If the following conditions occur while operating, initialization will fail.
    1. Engine switch is turned off.
    2. Pushed switch is released while sliding roof is operating.
    3. Vehicle speed is 5 km/h (3 mph) or more.
    4. Battery of sliding roof ECU is 1 V or higher.
    5. Communication is cut off.

    HINT:
    1. If the sliding roof cannot fully close or its position has become misaligned, perform the initialization again.
    2. If the sliding roof TILT UP switch or SLIDE CLOSE switch is pressed and held until the roof glass has either stopped moving or started moving in the opposite direction, and then the switch is held for another 10 seconds or more, perform the initialization again.
    3. If the AUTO operation function and jam protection function do not operate after the drive gear has been reset, replace the sliding roof drive gear (sliding roof ECU).

STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION (to obtain a tire angle (during straight-ahead driving) signal)


    C109494

  1. Turn the engine switch on (IG), and check that the master warning light and brake warning light illuminate for a few seconds.

    CAUTION:
    If the warning lights remain on or blink, repair the applicable system.

  2. Drive the vehicle on a straight road at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for 5 seconds or longer.

    HINT:
    1. At this point, the steering wheel will still remain off-center by 5 to 10 degrees.
    2. In this step, the neutral position of the steering wheel is restored from the steering control ECU memory.

  3. Confirm the steering angle sensor initialization is completed (when using the intelligent tester).

    1. Enter the VGRS menu using the intelligent tester. Select "STRAIGH ANG FLG" from "DATA LIST". Check if the steering angle sensor has obtained a tire angle (during straight-ahead driving) signal.

      Standard:
      "VALID" is displayed on the tester screen.

  4. Confirm the steering angle sensor initialization is completed (when not using the intelligent tester).

    1. Drive the vehicle on a road at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 30 seconds or longer.

    2. Stop the vehicle (engine running).

    3. Slowly turn the steering wheel from lock to lock.

    4. If it rotates approximately 2.7 turns, the steering angle sensor initialization is completed. Ifit rotates approximately 3.2 turns, the steering angle sensor initialization is not completed.

      CAUTION:
      If the steering wheel turns approximately 3.2 turns, perform step (b) again.
