Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Vehicle Speed Sensor Circuit (C1AA3)

Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Cruise Control / Lane Departure Alert System / Vehicle Speed Sensor Circuit (C1AA3)

DESCRIPTION

The forward recognition camera receives vehicle speed signals from the skid control ECU. If the skid control ECU receives a vehicle speed sensor malfunction signal, it informs the forward recognition camera via CAN communication, and DTC C1AA3 is stored.

DTC No.	Detection Item	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
C1AA3	Vehicle Speed Sensor Circuit	3 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON, a signal from the skid control ECU indicating a malfunction in a vehicle speed sensor is detected by the forward recognition camera for 5 seconds or more.	Vehicle stability control system Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)1 Skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid)2 Forward recognition camera

*1: for Vacuum Brake Booster
*2: for Hydraulic Brake Booster

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing the forward recognition camera, always replace it with a new one. If a forward recognition camera which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the forward recognition camera will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.
If the forward recognition camera has been replaced with a new one, be sure to perform forward recognition camera learning.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK DTC OUTPUT (VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM)

HINT:

If DTC C1AA3 is stored, the vehicle stability control system may be malfunctioning. Check for DTCs related to the vehicle stability control system first.

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(d) Check for DTCs.
