Diagnosis System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Lexus IS F. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION 
    1. The diagnosis function makes the master warning light and the multi-information display come on, and the CRUISE main indicator light blinks as shown in the illustration When a malfunction occurs in the dynamic radar cruise control system, the DTCs are stored in the ECM

      NOTE:
      • The master warning light goes off if the system returns to normal condition.
      • Since the stored data in the ECM is cleared by disconnecting the EFI and ETCS fuses or the battery terminal, do not disconnect them until the inspection has been completed.

      • If the indicator check result shows a problem, proceed to troubleshooting for the combination meter article.
      • If a malfunction occurs in the vehicle speed sensors, the stop light switch, or other related parts during cruise control driving, the ECU actuates AUTO CANCEL of the cruise control and blinks the CRUISE main indicator light. This indicator light informs the driver of the malfunction At the same time, the malfunction is stored as a diagnostic trouble code.
