How to Troubleshoot the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
LKAS Indicator (Amber)
When the LKAS detects a problem while operating, the LKAS stops operating, and the LKAS indicator stays on. NOTE: The LKAS communicates with the EPS motor/control unit, the gauge control module, the PCM, the VSA modulator-control unit, and the SRS unit via the F-CAN. If a connected unit malfunctions, the LKAS will not operate. In this case, both the LKAS indicator and the connected unit indicator come on and stay on (except for the gauge control module). Multi-Information Display (MID) Indication
When the LKAS indicates OK, the LKAS indicates its operation on the MID when the MAIN switch is ON. Self-Diagnostic Function
The LKAS has a self-diagnostic function. If the self-diagnostic function detects a malfunction, the LKAS stops operating. The LKAS indicator comes on, and the LKAS indicates "Lane Keep Assist Problem" on the MID. Multipurpose Camera Unit
Multipurpose camera unit function sends the lane image which was received by the multipurpose camera to the multipurpose camera unit. Also, it is equipped with an error detection feature which sends error data to the multipurpose camera unit when a malfunction is detected. The multipurpose camera unit communicates with the gauge control module to send a warning signal. Multipurpose Camera Aiming Function
If the multipurpose camera unit is removed or replaced, do the multipurpose camera aiming procedure. If the aiming is incomplete, the LKAS indicator blinks. CAN Communication
The multipurpose camera unit is on the F-CAN, and it communicates with other units (EPS motor/control unit, gauge control module, PCM, VSA modulator-control unit, and SRS unit) via the F-CAN. How to Troubleshoot DTCs
Check for DTCs with the HDS. Make a copy of the freeze data, then clear the DTC. Before troubleshooting, check and note these items:
Intermittent Failures
The term ''intermittent failure'' means a system may have had a failure, but it checks OK now. If you cannot reproduce the condition, check for loose connections and terminals. Also check ground and power connections related to the circuit that you are troubleshooting. How to Retrieve DTCs
NOTE: Make sure the 12 volt battery is fully charged before you begin.
How to Clear DTCs
NOTE: Make sure the 12 volt battery is fully charged before you begin.
