DTC P1617 Distance Control ECU Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
In the dynamic laser cruise control system, the ECM and the distance control ECU communicate with one another to control the system based on some designation information. If the designation information of the ECM and distance control ECU is different or the distance control ECU is malfunctioning, this DTC is recorded

P1617 |
While the dynamic laser cruise control is either preparing for operation or operating, if a designation signal from the ECM and a designation return signal from the distance control ECU do not match or the distance control ECU is malfunctioning for more than a specific amount of time, the ECM records this trouble code | Distance control ECU |
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE: When the distance control ECU is replaced with a new one, initialization must be performed
1 CONFIRM DESIGNATION INFORMA
OK: The skid control buzzer sounds. (Initialization is performed.)
NOTICE:

Sound Signal Circuit between Radio and Navigation Assembly and
Stereo Component Amplifier
DESCRIPTION
The radio and navigation assembly sends a sound signal to the stereo
component amplifier through this
circuit.
The sound signal that has been sent is amplified by the stereo component
amplifier, and then is sent to
the speakers.
If there is an open or short in the circuit, s ...
Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
The meter CPU uses the fuel sender gauge assembly to determine the level of
the fuel in the fuel tank.
The resistance of the fuel sender gauge will vary between approximately 15 Ω
with the float at the full
position, and 410 Ω with the float at the empty position. The ...
