Caution / Notice / Hint
Inspection Method
Example:
Drive at 10 km/h (6.25 mph), depress the accelerator pedal by 1/2 to 3/4 and keep it in that position. Under these conditions, if the engine speed decreases to 1000 rpm when the brake pedal is depressed, then the brake override system has been activated.
When carrying out the inspection, use a place where you are able to carry it out safely and also pay close attention to your surroundings.
Also, when driving make absolutely sure that all road traffic laws, such as speed limits, are observed.
HINT:
- Under normal conditions, the Accelerator Position value changes in response to the Accel Sens. No. 1 Volt % value. For more information on the numerical values, refer to the Data List.
Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2013 - 08/2014] Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2014 - 08/2016]
- If the Accelerator Position and Accel Sens. No. 1 Volt % values in the Data List diverge and the Accelerator Position value in the Data List is fixed even though Accel Sens. No. 1 Volt % is changing, check that this control is activated (use the Techstream data saving function to record data while driving the vehicle and then confirm it after driving is completed).
The brake override system restricts driving torque if the brake pedal is depressed when driving with the accelerator pedal depressed. If a customer reports experiencing loss of torque after the accelerator and brake pedals have both been intentionally depressed, explain to the customer that this is not a malfunction, and that the customer should avoid depressing both the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time.
Example: While operating the accelerator pedal, the customer uses their left foot to operate the brake pedal.
