Brake Override System: Description
When the vehicle is being driven, depressing the accelerator pedal sensor assembly and brake pedal will activate the brake override system to restrict driving torque. The conditions for activating the brake override system as well as the items that are controlled are explained below.
Activation Conditions:
- Vehicle is running at or above the specified speed.
- When the accelerator pedal and brake pedal are depressed.
The vehicle may not enter the brake override system control due to the relation of the accelerator pedal angle and the vehicle's speed.
Items Controlled:
- Driving torque is restricted.
HINT:
During brake override system control, the value for the accelerator pedal angle (which is used for engine control) is forcibly reduced to a specified value. For this reason, the Data List value for Accelerator Position will be replaced with a specified value regardless of the actual accelerator pedal angle (Accel Sens. No. 1 Volt %, Accel Sens. No. 2 Volt %)
Deactivation Conditions:
- When the brake pedal or the accelerator pedal returns to some degree.
