REAR SONAR SYSTEM
FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
REAR SONAR SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005146184
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146185
FUNCTION
With power and ground supplied, transmission gear selector lever in R position, and the sonar system OFF
switch ON, the rear sonar system will detect obstacles withi n 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) of the rear sonar sensors. The
vehicle operator is notified of obstacles by varied rate of tone from the sonar buzzer depending on distance of
obstacle being sensed.
SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit, transmission gear selector lever in R position, the
sonar system can be disabled and the sonar buzzer silenced by momentarily pressing the sonar system OFF
switch. The sonar system OFF indicator lamp will be illuminated in the sonar system OFF switch.
The rear sonar system and buzzer will be disabled and t he sonar system OFF indicator will be illuminated until
the ignition switch is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the rear sonar system will be
enabled. Depressing the sonar system OFF switch again will enable the rear sonar system also. Enabling the
rear sonar system will cause the rear sonar system OFF i ndicator to go out. If the indicator light is blinking
there is a malfunction in the system.
SONAR BUZZER
With power and ground supplied to the sonar control unit and the A/T selector lever in R position, a stationary
object that is at least 7.0 cm (2.8 in.) wide and 1.0 m (39. 0 in.) tall and that is closer than 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) will be
detected by the rear sonar sensors, causing the sonar buzzer to sound a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the rate of the tone will increase. When the object is less than 25.0 cm (10 in.) from the rear
bumper, the tone will sound continuously.
REAR SONAR SENSORS
With power and ground supplied to the rear sonar sens ors, the sonar sensors transmit an ultrasonic signal.
This signal is reflected back to the sensor by objects large enough and close enough to be detected. The rear
sonar sensors measure the time from the transmitted si gnal to the time the signal is reflected back and sends
this information to the sonar control unit.
BACK-UP LAMP RELAY
The back-up lamp relay provides a reverse signal to the sonar control unit.

SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
SONAR SYSTEM SYMPTOMS
Symptom TableINFOID:0000000005146213
Symptom Repair order
When the sonar system is OFF, the OFF indicator does not light
and the sonar buzzer does not sound. 1. Check sonar system OFF switch. Refer to
SN-20, "
Compo-
nent Inspection" or SN-19, "Diagnosis Procedure (With
Front and Rear Sonar System)".
2. Check harness and connections for sonar system OFF
switch.
3. Replace sonar control unit. Refer to SN-50, "
Removal and
Installation".
When the sonar system is OFF, the OFF indicator lamp does not
light but the sonar buzzer does sound. 1. Check sonar system OFF switch. Refer to
SN-19, "
Diagno-
sis Procedure (With Rear Sonar System)" or SN-19, "Diag-
nosis Procedure (With Front and Rear Sonar System)".
2. Check harness and connections for sonar system OFF indi- cator lamp.
3. Replace sonar control unit.
When the sonar system is OFF, the sonar buzzer does not sound
but the OFF indicator lamp lights. 1. Check sonar buzzer. Refer to
SN-18, "
Component Inspec-
tion" or SN-17, "Diagnosis Procedure (With Front and Rear
Sonar System)".
2. Check harness and connections between sonar buzzer and sonar control unit.
3. Replace sonar control unit.
When sonar system is ON, the sonar system OFF indicator lamp
lights up and the sonar buzzer sounds intermittently (for about 4
seconds). (Rear sonar system only) 1. Check harnesses between sonar sensors and sonar control
unit for an open condition.
2. Check sonar sensors. Refer to SN-5, "
Preliminary Check".
3. Replace sonar control unit.
The sonar system still operates when the sonar system is OFF. 1. Replace sonar control unit.
When the transmission gear selector lever is in the R position and
the sonar system is ON, the rear sonar system does not operate. 1. Check transmissin range switch. Refer to
TM-45, "
Diagnosis
Procedure".
2. Check back-up lamp relay.
3. Check related harness and connections for back-up lamp re- lay.
4. Replace sonar control unit.
When the transmission gear selector lever is in a forward drive
gear and the sonar system is ON, the front sonar system does not
operate. (With front and rear sonar system only) 1. Check harness and connections between sonar control unit
and combination meter.
2. Replace sonar control unit.
Sonar system OFF indicator lamp lights up and buzzer sounds al-
though there are no obstacles within the detection range. 1. Check sonar sensors.
2. Check harness and connections between sonar sensors
and sonar control unit.
3. Replace sonar control unit.
The sonar sensors do not detect objects in the detectable range. 1. Check sonar sensors.
2. Replace sonar control unit.

REMOVAL
CAUTION:
• Before servicing the SRS, turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect both battery terminals and wait at
least three minutes.
• When servicing the SRS, do not work from directly in front of air bag module.
1. Disconnect both the negative and positive battery te rminals, then wait at least three minutes.
2. Remove the steering wheel. Refer to ST-18, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove the instrument lower panel LH. Refer to IP-14, "
Exploded View".
4. Remove the column cover upper and lower.
5. Remove wiper washer switch connector, then pinch the tabs at wiper and washer switch base and slide switch away from steer-
ing column to remove.

SPIRAL CABLE
6. While pressing tabs, pull lighting and turn signal switch towarddriver door and disconnect from base.
7. Remove the screws, release the clip, and remove the spiral cable.
CAUTION:
• Do not disassemble spiral cable.
• Do not apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
8. Remove the spiral cable connectors. CAUTION:
With the steering linkage di sconnected, the spiral cable
may snap by turning the steer ing wheel beyond the limited
number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned counter-
clockwise about 2.5 turns fr om the neutral position.
9. Remove the steering angle sensor from the spiral cable. Refer to BRC-118, "
Removal and Installation".
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make
sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.5 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the knob at the top.
• If equipped with VDC, refer to BRC-8, "
ADJUSTMENT OF STEER-
ING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION : Special Repair
Requirement" for steering angle sensor adjustment.
• After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to make sure no malfunction is detected. Refer to SRC-13, "
SRS Operation
Check".
