DTC C1A0A: Front Radar Sensor Region Code Mismatch [09/2014 - 11/2017]: Procedure

  1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (COUNTRY# (F RADAR SENS)) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Radar Cruise / Data List.
    5. Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.

      Tester Display
      Country# (F Radar Sens)

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      Country specification information for vehicle and millimeter wave radar sensor assembly match A
      Country specification information for vehicle and millimeter wave radar sensor assembly do not match B

    Result: 

    REPLACE MILLIMETER WAVE RADAR SENSOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL [09/2014 - 11/2017] 

    Result: 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK FOR DTCs (PRE-COLLISION 2) 
    1. Clear the DTCs.

      Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [09/2014 - 11/2017]

      Body Electrical > Pre-Collision 2 > Clear DTCs 

    2. Make sure that the DTC detection conditions are met.

      HINT: 

      If the detection conditions are not met, the system cannot detect the malfunction.

    3. Check for DTCs.

      Body Electrical > Pre-Collision 2 > Trouble Codes 

      NOTE:

      When replacing the driving support ECU assembly, always replace it with a new one. If a driving support ECU assembly which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the driving support ECU assembly will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.

      HINT: 

      The country specification information stored in the driving support ECU assembly is determined by the country specification information stored in the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU). If the country specification information for the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly matches the vehicle, the country specification information for the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) and driving support ECU assembly is incorrect and the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) and driving support ECU assembly need to be replaced.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      DTC C1A0A is not output A
      DTC C1A0A is output B

    Result: 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [09/2014 - 08/2016]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [08/2016 - 11/2017] 

    Result: 

    REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU (MULTIPLEX NETWORK BODY ECU) AND DRIVING SUPPORT ECU ASSEMBLY
