Operation Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Infiniti QX80. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

ICC sensor calculates a distance from a vehicle ahead and a relative speed to transmit the ICC sensor signal to the ADAS control unit via ITS communication. Based on the received signal, the ADAS control unit transmits a control signal to the accelerator pedal actuator via ITS communication and to the ABS actuator control unit (control unit) via CAN communication.
