REAR SONAR SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005146184
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146185
FUNCTION
With power and ground supplied, transmission gear selector lever in R position, and the sonar system OFF
switch ON, the rear sonar system will detect obstacles withi n 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) of the rear sonar sensors. The
vehicle operator is notified of obstacles by varied rate of tone from the sonar buzzer depending on distance of
obstacle being sensed.
SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit, transmission gear selector lever in R position, the
sonar system can be disabled and the sonar buzzer silenced by momentarily pressing the sonar system OFF
switch. The sonar system OFF indicator lamp will be illuminated in the sonar system OFF switch.
The rear sonar system and buzzer will be disabled and t he sonar system OFF indicator will be illuminated until
the ignition switch is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the rear sonar system will be
enabled. Depressing the sonar system OFF switch again will enable the rear sonar system also. Enabling the
rear sonar system will cause the rear sonar system OFF i ndicator to go out. If the indicator light is blinking
there is a malfunction in the system.
SONAR BUZZER
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit and the A/T selector lever in R position, a stationary
object that is at least 7.0 cm (2.8 in.) wide and 1.0 m (39. 0 in.) tall and that is closer than 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) will be
detected by the rear sonar sensors, causing the sonar buzzer to sound a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the rate of the tone will increase. When the object is less than 25.0 cm (10 in.) from the rear
bumper, the tone will sound continuously.
REAR SONAR SENSORS
With power and ground supplied to the rear sonar sens ors, the sonar sensors transmit an ultrasonic signal.
This signal is reflected back to the sensor by objects large enough and close enough to be detected. The rear
sonar sensors measure the time from the transmitted si gnal to the time the signal is reflected back and sends
this information to the sonar control unit.
BACK-UP LAMP RELAY
The back-up lamp relay provides a reverse signal to the sonar control unit.

Self-Diagnosis FunctionINFOID:0000000005146188
There are four modes of self-diagnosis. Thes e modes must be followed in the following order:
1. Entering diagnostics mode
2. Requesting number of fault codes mode
3. Requesting fault codes mode
4. Clearing fault codes mode
Self-diagnosis can be manually exited by turning the igni tion OFF or selecting reverse gear. Self-diagnosis will
exit unless a fault code request occurs before a me ssage is repeated five times without acknowledgement.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146190
FUNCTION
With power and ground supplied, transmission gear selector lever in R position, and the sonar system OFF
switch ON, the sonar system will detect obstacles within 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) of the rear sonar sensors and the two
outer front sonar sensors. The vehicle operator is notif ied of obstacles by varied rate of tone from the rear
sonar buzzer depending on distance of obstacle being sens ed. If the vehicle speed reaches 50 km/h (31
MPH) the sonar syst em will shut down.
With power and ground supplied, transmission gear selector lever in a forward drive gear, and the sonar sys-
tem OFF switch ON, the front sonar system will detect obstacles within 1.0 m (3 ft.) of the front sonar sensors.
The vehicle operator is notified of obstacles by varied rate of tone from the front sonar buzzer depending on
distance of obstacle being sensed. When the vehicle accelerates to 12 km/h (7.5 MPH) the sonar system will
shut down. When the vehicle decelerates to 8 km/h (5 MPH) the sonar system will turn back on.
SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit, transmission gear selector lever in a position other
than P, the sonar system can be di sabled and the sonar buzzers silenced by momentarily pressing the sonar
system OFF switch. The sonar system OFF indicator lamp will be illuminated in the sonar system OFF switch.
The sonar system and buzzers will be di sabled and the sonar system OFF indicator will be illuminated until the
ignition switch is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the sonar system will be enabled.
Depressing the sonar system OFF switch again will enabl e the sonar system also. Enabling the sonar system
will cause the sonar system OFF indicator to go out. The indicator will flash if a malfunction exists in the sys-
tem.
SONAR BUZZERS
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit and the A/T selector lever in R position, a stationary
object that is at least 9.0 cm (3.5 in.) wide and that is closer than 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) will be detected by the rear
sonar sensors and the two outer front sonar sensors, causing the rear sonar buzzer to sound a tone. As the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the rate of the tone will increase. When the object is less than 25.0 cm (10
in.) from the rear bumper, the tone will sound continuously.

front sonar sensors, causing the front sonar buzzer to sound a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the object,
the rate of the tone will increase. When the object is less than 30 cm (12 in.) from the front bumper, the tone
will sound continuously.

SONAR SENSOR CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146196
With power and ground supplied to the sonar sensors, the sonar sensors transmit an ultrasonic signal. This
signal is reflected back to the sensor by objec ts large enough and close enough to be detected. The sonar
sensors measure the time from the transmitted signal to the time the signal is reflected back and send this
information to the sonar control unit.
Diagnosis Procedure (With Rear Sonar System)INFOID:0000000005146197
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to SN-23, "Wiring Diagram".
1.CHECK REAR SONAR SENSOR CIRCUITS

SPIRAL CABLE
6. While pressing tabs, pull lighting and turn signal switch towarddriver door and disconnect from base.
7. Remove the screws, release the clip, and remove the spiral cable.
CAUTION:
• Do not disassemble spiral cable.
• Do not apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
8. Remove the spiral cable connectors. CAUTION:
With the steering linkage di sconnected, the spiral cable
may snap by turning the steer ing wheel beyond the limited
number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned counter-
clockwise about 2.5 turns fr om the neutral position.
9. Remove the steering angle sensor from the spiral cable. Refer to BRC-118, "
Removal and Installation".
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make
sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.5 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the knob at the top.
• If equipped with VDC, refer to BRC-8, "
ADJUSTMENT OF STEER-
ING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION : Special Repair
Requirement" for steering angle sensor adjustment.
• After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to make sure no malfunction is detected. Refer to SRC-13, "
SRS Operation
Check".
