How to Troubleshoot DTCs: Notes
Check and clear the DTCs with the HDS.
NOTE:
When both the ACC and CMBS indicators come on, do the ACC system troubleshooting first (except DTC 100).
Before troubleshooting, check and note these items:
- Ask the client about the conditions when the problem occurred, and try to reproduce the same conditions for troubleshooting.
- If the symptom does not appear and the CMBS indicator does not come on during the test-drive, but troubleshooting is done based on the DTC, check for poor connections or loose terminals at all connectors related to the circuit that you are troubleshooting.
- After the troubleshooting or repairs are done, clear the DTCs, and test-drive the vehicle under the same conditions as when the DTC was originally.
- The ACC system and the CMBS may sometimes stop working because of the environment (weather, road conditions, driving conditions, etc.). A DTC may be stored in these cases.
DTCs that may be stored even when the system is normal:
