CALIBRATION
1. DESCRIPTION
(a) After replacing components relating to the VSC or
performing "Front wheel alignment adjustment",
clear and read the sensor calibration data.
(b) Follow the chart to perform calibration.
2. CLEAR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION DATA (When
Using Intelligent Tester)
(a) Clear the zero point calibration data.
(1) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to
the DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Operate the intelligent tester to erase the codes
(select "Reset Memory").
HINT:
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual
for further details.
(4) Using the intelligent tester, perform the zero
point calibration of the yaw rate and deceleration
sensor.
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.

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.
(b) Obtain the zero point of the yaw rate and
deceleration sensor.
(1) Keep the vehicle stationary on a level surface for
2 seconds or more.
(2) Check that the VSC warning light blinks as
shown in the illustration.
HINT:
• If the VSC warning light does not blink,
perform the zero point calibration again.
• The zero point calibration is performed only
once after the system enters test mode.
• Calibration cannot be performed again until
the stored data is cleared once.
(3) Turn the ignition switch OFF.

4. CLEAR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION DATA (When not
Using Intelligent Tester)
(a) Clear the zero point calibration data.
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) The warning light and indicator light come on for
3 seconds to indicate that the initial check is
completed.
(3) Using SST, connect and disconnect terminals 12
(TS) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 4 times or more
within 8 seconds.

(4) Check that the VSC warning light comes on.
(5) Remove SST from the terminals of the DLC3.
(6) Using a check wire, perform the zero point
calibration of the yaw rate and deceleration
sensor.
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.
5. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION OF YAW
RATE AND DECELERATION SENSOR (When not
Using Intelligent Tester)
NOTICE:

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

shown in the illustration.
HINT:
• If the VSC warning light does not blink,
perform the zero point calibration again.

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").
HINT:
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual
for further details.

(8) Check that the ABS warning light and VSC
warning light blink as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
If the ABS warning light and VSC warning
warning light do not blink, check the TS and CG
terminal circuit, and ABS and VSC warning light
circuits.
(9) Start the engine.
(b) w/ 16-inch disc only:
Check the lost booster pressure judgment and
perform the master cylinder pressure sensor zero
point calibration.
NOTICE:
Preform the check in the lost booster pressure
state (negative pressure in the booster is
depressurized).
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) Check that the brake warning light comes on
when depressing the brake pedal with a force of
59 N (6 kgf, 13.2 lbf) or more for 1 second or
more. (The lost booster pressure state is judged
normal.)
(3) Start the engine depressing the brake pedal with
a force of 59 N (6 kgf, 13.2 lbf) or more for 1
second or more.
(4) Check that the brake warning light goes off when
quickly releasing the brake pedal. (The lost
booster pressure state is judged normal.)
(5) Leave the vehicle for 1 second or more. (Master
cylinder pressure sensor zero point calibration.)
NOTICE:
• If you slowly depress the brake pedal or
depress it again, master cylinder pressure
sensor zero point calibration is not
performed normally.
• If the lost booster pressure judgment
check is not completed normally, the
master cylinder pressure sensor check is
not judged.
• If a recheck is performed after the engine
has started, end the Test Mode, enter Test
Mode again, and release the vacuum in
the booster by pumping the brake pedal
prior to the recheck.

(h) w/ Auto LSD only:
Check the end of the sensor.
(1) When the sensor check is successfully
completed, the ABS warning light blinks in the
test mode pattern when the vehicle is stopped,
and goes off when the vehicle is driven.
NOTICE:
If the sensor check is not completed, the
ABS warning light blinks even while the
vehicle is driving and the ABS does not
operate.
(i) Read the DTCs of the signal check function.
(1) Using SST, connect terminals 13 (TC) and 4
(CG) of the DLC3.

warning light.
HINT:
As an example, the blinking patters of DTCs 71
and 74 are shown below.
NOTICE:
• If only DTCs are displayed, repair the
malfunctioning area and clear the DTCs.
• If the DTCs or test mode codes (DTC of
signal check function) are displayed,
