Inspection Procedure 2: The LDW does not enter the warning monitor mode under some circumstances.
 
 
caution
  • The system may not also work correctly under certain external factors (such as weather, road conditions, or ambient environments). Prior to the diagnosis, refer to trouble symptom chart . Grasp the details if necessary.
  • Before replacing the ECU, ensure that the power supply circuit, the ground circuit and the communication circuit are normal.
 
 
COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
When the LDW does not enter the warning monitor mode, any of the followings are suspected: bad weather (heavy rain, snow, icing), unfavorable road condition, ambient environment, blocked FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU sensor or its surroundings (scratches, contamination, icing, fog on the windshield or the sensor), or a faulty FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU.
noteThe system does not proceed to the warning monitor mode when any of the followings is satisfied:
  • Narrow road [width: less than 2.5 mm (0.1 in)]
  • The road where white and yellow lines intersect
  • The road where the distances among two white and one yellow lines are narrow
  • The road where the distances among one white and two yellow lines are narrow
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • Faults on the windshield glass (such as scratch, cracks, contamination or drain drops on the glass surface)
  • FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU improperly installed
  • Faulty FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU (sensor: lane improperly detected)
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the sensor mounted surface on the windshield.
Visually check the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU mounted surface on the windshield for scratch, cracks, contamination or drain drops.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2
Windshield glass replacement (Refer to GROUP 42A - windshield glass removal and installation ).
 
STEP 2. Check whether the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU is installed properly.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3
Install the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU properly.
 
STEP 3. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check data list.
Check the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU data list (Refer to ).
(1)
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "How to connect Scan Tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) ."
(2) Check the LDW switch signal.
  • The vehicle is being driven on the road where lane division lines are clear with the LDW activated.

OK: Normal condition is displayed.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4
Replace the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU (Refer to ).
 
STEP 4. Retest the system.
Check that the LDW operates normally.
Is the check result normal?
This symptom is caused by a bad weather or road conditions. It is not a malfunction.
Replace the FCM/LDW/AHB-ECU (Refer to ).
