various data output from the vehicle's clearance warning ECU.
The clearance warning ECU records DTCs when the computer detects a malfunction in the
computer itself or in its circuits.
To check the DTCs, connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3 on the vehicle. The hand-held
tester enables you to erase the DTCs, activate the several actuators and check the freeze
frame data and data list.
b. Check the DLC3.
The clearance warning ECU follows the CAN and ISO 9141-2 communication protocol. The
terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2
format.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Ultrasonic sensor consists of a sensor portion that transmits and receives ultrasonic waves and a pre-amplifier
that amplifies them. The ultrasonic sensor outputs the ultrasonic transmission and reception signals to the
clearance warning ECU assy.
