(g) Hill-start assist control:
When the vehicle starts off on a steep hill, hill-start
assist control effects 4-wheel hydraulic pressure
control to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards.
After a maximum of 2 seconds after the control has
started, fluid pressure is gradually released and
control will be complete.
HINT:
• Depressing the brake pedal cancels control of
the hill-start assist control.
• Hill-start assist control does not operate when
the shift lever is in the P position, or when the
vehicle is running, the parking brake lever is set,
or the accelerator pedal is depressed.

Steering Sensor • Detects the steering extent and direction and sends
signals to the skid control ECU via CAN communication
• Has a magnetic resistance element which detects the
rotation of the magnet housed in the detection gear in
order to detect the changes in magnetic resistance and
the steering amount and direction
Yaw Rate and Deceleration Sensor • Yaw rate sensor detects the vehicle's angular velocity
(yaw rate) in the vertical direction based on the extent
and direction of the deflection of the piezoelectric
ceramics

3. PREFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION OF YAW
RATE AND DECELERATION SENSOR (When Using
Intelligent Tester)
NOTICE:
• While obtaining the zero point, do not vibrate the
vehicle by tilting, moving or shaking it and keep it
stationary. (Do not start the engine.)
• Perform this on a level surface (with an inclination
of less than 1
).
(a) Procedures for Test Mode.
(1) Check that the shift lever is in the P position and
apply the parking brake.
NOTICE:
DTCs C1210/36 and C1336/39 will be
recorded if the shift lever is not the P
position (see page BC-88).
(2) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to
the DLC3.
(3) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(4) Set the intelligent tester to test mode (select
"Test Mode").
HINT:
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual
for further details.

CAUTION:
If the ignition switch is turned ON for more
than 15 seconds with the shift lever in the P
position after zero point of the yaw rate and
acceleration sensor has been cleared, only
the zero point of the yaw rate sensor will be
stored. If the vehicle is driven under this
condition, the skid control ECU will
recognize that zero point calibration of the
acceleration sensor is not completed and will
indicate that there is a malfunction in the
VSC system using the indicator light.

TEST MODE PROCEDURE
HINT:
• By switching the skid control ECU from normal mode to
test mode, abnormality detection sensitivity is enhanced
and troubleshooting can be conducted efficiently.
• Perform a sensor check in test mode after the speed
sensor or sensor rotor has been repaired or replaced.
• If the ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC or OFF
during test mode, DTCs related to the signal check
function will be erased.
• During test mode, the skid control ECU stores all DTCs
related to the signal check function, and the DTCs are
erased if normality is confirmed. Any remaining DTCs are
those indicating abnormalities that were found.
1. CHECK SENSOR SIGNAL BY TEST MODE (When
Using Intelligent Tester)
(a) Procedures for test mode:
(1) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(2) Check that the steering wheel is in the centered
position.
(3) Check that the shift lever is in the P position and
apply the parking brake.
(4) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to
the DLC3.
(5) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(6) Turn the tester on.
(7) Set the intelligent tester to Test Mode (select
"Signal Check").
