Toyota Tundra Service Manual: Acceleration Sensor Stuck Malfunction (C1243)

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) receives signals from the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) via CAN communication.

The airbag sensor assembly has a built-in yaw rate and acceleration sensor and detects the vehicle's condition using 2 circuits (GL1, GL2).

If there is trouble in the bus lines between the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) and the CAN communication system, the DTC U0123 (Lost Communication with Yaw Rate Sensor Module) is output.

These DTCs are also output when calibration has not been completed.

DTC No.

C1243

Acceleration Sensor Stuck Malfunction

Any of the following is detected:

  • When the vehicle speed is over 70 km/h and the acceleration sensor value is 0.0 G.
  • When both the acceleration sensor value and the calculated absolute value of the acceleration sensor exceed 0.2 G at a vehicle speed of 70 km/h or more.
  • Acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly)
  • Acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) circuit
  • Sensor installation

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly), perform zero point calibration and store system information.
