CRUISE CONTROL: DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM: P1570: Radar Sensor Malfunction
P1570 - Radar Sensor Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly emits radar beams towards an object in front and measures the distance and direction of the object by receiving the beam reflections. Based on the reflections, the sensor calculates the difference in speed between your own vehicle and the object in front. This data is transmitted to the distance control ECU.





HINT
The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly monitors the millimeter wave circuit activation by itself. This DTC is output when one of the following occurs: 1) the monitor is malfunctioning, 2) an EEPROM error is detected, 3) a voltage error is detected, and 4) the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly is not adjusted. When raindrops or snowflakes strike the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly face, the distance between the vehicle in front and your own vehicle cannot be measured correctly. The dynamic radar cruise control system functions by detecting the beam reflections from the vehicle directly in front. In the following cases, the system may not be able to detect the vehicle in front and may not properly maintain the correct vehicle-to-vehicle distance:

- The vehicle in front is a tall trailer.
- There are heavy emissions from a vehicle in front or vehicles in other lanes.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly is replaced with a new one, adjustment of the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly beam axis must be performed Adjustments.

PROCEDURE

1. ADJUST MILLIMETER WAVE RADAR SENSOR ASSEMBLY

(a) Adjust the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly Adjustments.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P1570)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Clear the DTCs Dynamic Radar Cruise Control System.

(e) Perform the following to make sure that the DTC detection conditions are met.

HINT
If the detection conditions are not met, the malfunction cannot be detected.

(1) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph) or more.

(2) Turn the cruise control main switch on.

(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Radar Cruise / Trouble Codes.

(g) Read the DTCs Dynamic Radar Cruise Control System.
