CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The laser sensor emits laser beams towards an object in front and measures the distance and direction of the
object by receiving the beam reflections. Based on the reflections, the sensor calculates the difference in speed
between your own vehicle and on object in front. This data is transmitted to the cruise control ECU (distance
control ECU).
DTC P1570 PROBLEM SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC
HINT:
DTC No.Detection ItemTrouble Area
P1570The ECM outputs this trouble code when it detects the communication
error signal (from the cruise control ECU (distance control ECU) to the
laser sensor) for 0.15 sec. or more while the dynamic laser cruise control
is in operation.laser sensor

The laser sensor monitors the laser emission and reception by itself. This DTC is detected when it cannot
monitor.
When rain drops or snowflakes strike the laser sensor face, the distance between the vehicle in front and your
own vehicle cannot be measured correctly.
The dynamic laser cruise control system functions by detecting the reflector of the vehicle directly in front. In
the following cases, the system may not be able to detect the vehicle in front and may not properly maintain the
correct vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
The vehicle in front is a tall trailer.
The back of the vehicle in front is extremely dirty.
Emissions from the vehicle in front or from other lanes are heavy.
The vehicle in front has no reflector.
The laser sensor is receiving a strong flash of light (sunlight, etc.).
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.ADJUST LASER SENSOR (SEE ADJUSTMENT
)
HINT:
It is necessary to make the ECM recognize spec information (whether the vehicle is equipped with the
dynamic laser or not). When this procedure has not been carried out, this DTC may be output.
1. Clear the DTC and then recheck for DTCs.
OK: DTC is not output.
HINT:
If DTC P1570 is still output after performing the above procedures, replace the laser sensor.
NG: REPLACE LASER SENSOR (SEE REPLACEMENT
)
OK: SYSTEM OK
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This DTC is output when the scanning angle of the laser sensor is incorrect.
This DTC is also output when the laser sensor optical axis is in an incorrect position is detected.
DTC P1572 PROBLEM SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC

HINT:
If the optical axis deviates to the upper/lower side +/-2° or more and/or the right/left side +/-4° or more, this
DTC is detected.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.ADJUST LASER SENSOR (SEE ADJUSTMENT
)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit detects the angle and direction of steering and automatically transmits its signal to the skid control
ECU and distance control ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
This circuit uses CAN for communication. Therefore, if there are any malfunctions in the communication
circuit, one or more DTCs in the CAN communication system is/are output.

TROUBLESHOOTING )
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit provides power to operate the cruise control ECU (distance control ECU). The distance control
ECU determines the vehicle that you are following based on data from the laser sensor and then decides how
much acceleration and/or deceleration is needed to maintain the set distance. It also requests the skid control
ECU to apply braking and sound the buzzer.
