Data List / Active Test [12/2024 - ]

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. DATA LIST 
    NOTE:
    • In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
    • When performing an inspection, make sure that "ACC Customize" is set to "ON" using the multi-display.

      Refer to CUSTOMIZE PARAMETERS [12/2024 - ] 

    • When "ACC Customize" is set to "ON" (ACC supply power enabled), the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) controls the ACC relay on and off. When "ACC Customize" is set to "OFF" (ACC supply power disabled), the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and radio and display receiver assembly control the ACC relay on and off.

      Therefore, inspection conditions and results may differ depending on whether "ACC customize" is set to ON or OFF when inspecting the Data List.

    HINT: 

    Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.

    1. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.

    Using the GTS to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
