BRAKE PEDAL VIBRATION OR OPERATION SOUND OCCURS
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006222665
 Brake pedal vibrates and motor sound from ABS actuat or and electric unit (control unit) occurs, when the
engine starts.
 Brake pedal vibrates during braking.
CAUTION:
Vibration may be felt during brake pedal is lightly de pressed (just placing a foot on it) in the following
conditions. This is normal.
 When shifting gears
 When driving on slippery road
 During cornering at high speed
 When passing over bumps or grooves [Approx. 50 mm (1.97 in) or more]
 When pulling away just after starting engine [at approx. 10 km/h (6.2 MPH) or higher]
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000006222666
1.CHECK SYMPTON 1
Depress the brake pedal 10 times or more with the engine stopped and decrease the accumulator pressure to
check that there are pedal vibrations when the engine is started.
Do vibrations occur?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Check brake pedal. Refer to BR-21, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
2.CHECK SYMPTON 2
Depress the brake pedal 10 times or more with the engine stopped and decrease the accumulator pressure to
check that motor noise from ABS actuator and electr ic unit (control unit) occurs when the engine starts.
Does the operation sound occur?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Perform self-diagnosis for “ABS” with CONSULT-III.
3.CHECK SYMPTON 3
Check symptoms when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Does the symptom occur?
YES >> Check that radio (including wiring), antenna and antenna lead-in wires are not located near ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Move them if they are located near ABS actuator and elec-
tric unit (control unit).
NO >> Normal

LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006224293
OUTLINE OF LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Always adjust the laser beam aiming after removing and installing or replacing the ICC sensor.
CAUTION:
The system does not operate normally
unless the laser beam aiming adjustment is performed. Always
perform it.
1. Set the ICC target board [SST: KV99110100 (J-45718)] to the correct position in front of the vehicle.
2. Set the laser beam aiming mode (“LASER BEAM AD JUST” on “Work support”) with CONSULT-III, and
then perform the adjustment according to the displa y. (Manually turn the up-down direction adjusting
screw for vertical adjustment. ICC sensor adjusts the automatic aiming for the horizontal direction.)
CAUTIONARY POINT FOR LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
CAUTION:
 For laser beam aiming adjustment, choose a level location where a view can be obtained without any
obstruction as far as 12 m (39 ft) or more in the forward direction.
 Adjust laser beam aiming for 5 second s or more after starting engine.
 Adjust the laser beam aiming with CONSULT-III. (The laser beam aiming cannot be adjusted without
CONSULT-III.)
 Never enter the vehicle during laser beam aiming adjustment.
 Never look directly into the laser beam sour ce (ICC sensor body window) during laser beam aiming
adjustment.
 Laser beam aiming adjustment is performed at idle. At this time, turn the headlamps OFF.
Work Procedure (Preparation)INFOID:0000000006224294
1.ADVANCE PREPARATION FOR LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
1. Adjust all tire pressure to the specified value.
2. Empty the vehicle. (Remove any luggage from the passenger compartment, luggage room, etc.)
3. Shift the selector lever to “P” pos ition, and release the parking brake.
4. Fully fill the fuel tank, and then check that t he coolant and oils are filled up to correct level.
5. Clean off the ICC sensor body window with a soft cloth.
>> Go to CCS-72, "
Work Procedure (Setting The ICC Tar-
get Board)".
Work Procedure (Setting The ICC Target Board)INFOID:0000000006224295
DESCRIPTION
Accurate adjustment of the laser beam requires t hat the ICC target board be accurately positioned.
CAUTION:
If the laser beam is adjusted with the ICC target board in the incorrect position, the ICC system does
not function normally.

Diagnosis DescriptionINFOID:0000000006349776
AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
 Oil pressure warning lamp
 Rear window defogger
 Front wiper (LO, HI)
 Parking lamp
 License plate lamp
 Tail lamp
 Side marker lamp
 Front fog lamp
 Headlamp (LO, HI)
 A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
Operation Procedure
CAUTION:
Never perform auto active test in the following conditions.
 Engine is running.
 CONSULT-III is connected.
1. Close the hood and lift the wiper arms from the windshield. (Prevent windshield damage due to wiper
operation)
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON, and within 20 seconds, pr ess the driver door switch 10 times. Then turn the
ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Close passenger door.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Af ter that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
CAUTION:
Engine starts when igniti on switch is turned ON while brake pedal is depressed.
5. The oil pressure warning lamp starts blinking when the auto active test starts.
6. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
 When auto active test has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn the ignition switch OFF.
 When auto active test is not activated, door swit ch may be the cause. Check door switch. Refer to DLK-117,
"ComponentFunctionCheck".
Inspection in Auto Active Test
When auto active test is actuated, the following operation sequence is repeated 3 times.
Operation
sequence Inspection location Operation
1 Oil pressure warning lamp Blinks continuously during operation of auto active test
2 Rear window defogger 10 seconds
3 Front wiper LO for 5 seconds → HI for 5 seconds
4 Parking lamp

Concept of auto active test
 IPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door
switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communica-
tion. Therefore, the CAN communication line between IPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the auto
active test starts successfully.
 The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated.
