Inspection Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DISTANCE CONTROL ECU - LASER RADAR SENSOR)
- Disconnect the distance control ECU and laser sensor connectors.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
RESISTANCE REFERENCETester Connection Condition Specified Condition A20-22 (LRDD) - A36-3 (LRDD) Always Below 1 Ω A20-13 (IGB) - A36-5 (IGB) Always Below 1 Ω A20-22 (LRDD) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher A20-13 (IGB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK DISTANCE CONTROL ECU
- Reconnect the distance control ECU connector. Not reconnect the laser sensor connector.
- Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A20-13 (IGB) - Body ground Ignition switch on (IG) 10 to 16 V A20-22 (LRDD) - Body ground Ignition switch on (IG) 4.5 to 5.5 V
NG: REPLACE DISTANCE CONTROL ECU
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK LASER SENSOR
- Reconnect the laser sensor connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A36-5 (IGB) - Body ground Ignition switch on (IG) 10 to 14 V - Check the signal waveform between terminal LRDD (A36-3) of the laser sensor and body ground.
OK:
A waveform similar to that in the illustration on the left is output.
HINT:
- Gauge set: 2 V/DIV, 10 msec./DIV
- Condition: Ignition switch on (IG)
NG: REPLACE LASER SENSOR
OK : CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
