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.
1.GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (SEE PRECAUTION
)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In the dynamic radar cruise control system, the ECM and the distance control ECU communicate with one
another to control the system based on some designation information. If the designation information of the
ECM and distance control ECU is different from each other, this DTC is recorded.
DTC P1617 PROBLEM SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.CONFIRM THE DESIGNATION INFORMATION
a. If this DTC is output, confirm the designation information by following the procedures below.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
2. Push the ON-OFF button of the cruise main switch on.
3. With the brake pedal depressed, push the cruise control main switch to RES/ACC 3 times
within 3 seconds. Check that the VSC buzzer sounds at this time.
If the light control switch is turned on by mistake, readjust the optical axis (refer to
ADJUSTMENT
for optical axis adjustment).

P1617While the dynamic radar cruise control is either
preparing for
operation or operating, if the designation signal from
the ECM
and the designation return signal from the distance
control
ECU do not match one another for a certain amount
of time or
more, the ECM records this trouble codeCruise control ECU (Distance
control ECU)
Page 2586 of 4500
4. Clear the DTC and then recheck for DTCs.
OK: DTC is not output.
HINT:
If DTC P1617 is still output after performing the above procedures, replace the distance control
ECU.
If the DTC P1617 is still output after replacing the distance control ECU, replace the ECM.
NG: REPLACE CRUISE CONTROL ECU ASSY (SEE REPLACEMENT
)
OK: SYSTEM OK
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU sends signals such as cruise control cancel demand signal, brake operation demand
response signal from the ECM, etc. to the ECM when the dynamic radar cruise control system is in operation.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECM sends signals such as A/T information signal, dynamic radar cruise control operation signal, brake
operation demand signal, buzzer operation demand signal and low speed mode signal, etc. to the skid control
ECU when the dynamic radar cruise control is in operation.

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.
1.GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (SEE PRECAUTION
)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ABS & traction actuator assy (skid control ECU) receives the alarm demand signal from the ECM and
operates the skid control buzzer.
The buzzer sounds to warn that the distance between the vehicle in front and
your own vehicle is shortening.

HINT:
If the vehicle ahead in the same lane significantly decreases its speed or another vehicle pulls in front of your
own vehicle, adequate deceleration cannot be applied and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance will shorten. At this
time, the system sounds the buzzer and the master warning light blinks to inform the driver.
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.

1.CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM (SEE HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Millimeter wave radar sensor and cruise control ECU (distance control ECU) transmit the data for general
vehicle control and diagnosis function along the communication line.
The Millimeter wave radar sensor transmits information about the vehicle in front to the cruise control ECU
(distance control ECU).
