Calibration (08/2011 - ): Calibration

  1. DESCRIPTION 

    After replacing VSC-related components, clearing and reading the sensor calibration data and system information is necessary.

    Replacement/Adjustment Part Necessary Operation
    Master cylinder solenoid (Skid control ECU) Yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and system information storage
    Yaw rate and G sensor 1. Clearing zero point calibration data and system information
    2. Yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and system information storage
    Vehicle height adjustment 1. Clearing zero point calibration data and system information
    2. Yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and system information storage
    3. Steering angle sensor initialization
  2. CLEAR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION AND SYSTEM INFORMATION (SST CHECK WIRE) 

    After replacing the yaw rate and G sensor or performing a vehicle height adjustment, make sure to clear the zero point calibration data in the skid control ECU, and then perform zero point calibration and store the system information.

    1. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    2. Using SST, connect and disconnect terminals 12 (TS) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 4 times or more within 8 seconds.
      • SST: 09843-18040

    3. Check that the slip indicator light and ABS warning light come on.
    4. Using a check wire, perform yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and store the system information.
  3. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION OF YAW RATE AND G SENSOR AND STORE SYSTEM INFORMATION (SST CHECK WIRE) 

    After replacing the master cylinder solenoid and/or yaw rate and G sensor or performing a vehicle height adjustment, make sure to perform yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and store the system information.

    NOTE:
    • While obtaining the zero point, do not vibrate the vehicle by tilting, moving or shaking it. Keep it stationary and do not start the engine.
    • Choose a level surface with an inclination of less than 1°.
    1. Procedures for Test Mode:
      1. Turn the engine switch off.
      2. Move the shift lever to P.
        NOTE:

        DTC C1210/36 and C1336/98 will be stored if the shift lever is not in P. Refer to DTC C1210/36: Zero Point Calibration of Yaw Rate Sensor Undone; DTC C1336/98: Zero Point Calibration of Acceleration Sensor Undone .

      3. Using SST, connect terminals 12 (TS) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
        • SST: 09843-18040

      4. Check that the steering wheel is centered.
      5. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
      6. Keep the vehicle stationary on a level surface for 2 seconds or more.
      7. Check that the slip indicator light and ABS warning light is blinking in the test mode pattern.
        NOTE:

        The ABS warning light stays on when obtaining the zero point.

        HINT: 

        • If the ABS warning light does not blink, perform zero point calibration again.
        • Zero point calibration is performed only once after the system enters test mode.
        • Calibration cannot be performed again until the stored data is cleared once.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.
    3. Check if DTC C120A/13 is output.

      HINT: 

      If DTC C120A/13 is not output, the storage of system information has been completed successfully.

  4. CLEAR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION AND SYSTEM INFORMATION (TECHSTREAM) 

    After replacing the yaw rate and G sensor or performing a vehicle height adjustment, make sure to clear the zero point calibration data in the skid control ECU, and then perform zero point calibration and store the system information.

    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC / Utility / Reset Memory.
    5. Using the Techstream, perform yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and store the system information.
  5. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION OF YAW RATE AND G SENSOR AND STORE SYSTEM INFORMATION (TECHSTREAM) 

    After replacing the master cylinder solenoid and/or yaw rate and G sensor or performing a vehicle height adjustment, make sure to perform yaw rate and G sensor zero point calibration and store the system information.

    NOTE:
    • While obtaining the zero point, do not vibrate the vehicle by tilting, moving or shaking it. Keep it stationary and do not start the engine.
