Electronically Controlled Brake System: Initialization

2009 Toyota Camry HybridSECTION Initialization
  1. DESCRIPTION 
    1. Perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration when the skid control ECU, brake actuator or brake pedal stroke sensor is replaced. Follow the procedure to perform initialization.

      HINT:

      • If there is a problem with the auxiliary battery (12 V) voltage, initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration cannot be completed normally. Make sure to check the auxiliary battery voltage before performing initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration.
      • If the actuator's temperature is high, initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration may not be completed normally. In such a case, wait until the temperature decreases and then perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration.
      • If the power switch is turned off, the brake pedal is operated or vehicle speed is input while the linear solenoid valve offset learning is being performed, the learning will be cancelled.

        *: Electronically Controlled Brake

        HINT:

        Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.

      6. Leave the vehicle stationary without depressing the brake pedal for 1 or 2 minutes.
      7. Check that the interval between blinks of the brake control warning light changes from 1 second to 0.25 seconds.

        HINT:

        • The time needed to complete initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration varies depending on auxiliary battery voltage.
        • The brake control warning light blinks at 1 second intervals during initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration and changes to the Test Mode display.
        • The brake control warning light blinks at 0.25 seconds intervals if the Test Mode is normal.
      8. Check that DTC C1345/66 which indicates trouble with stroke sensor zero point learning is not output when the brake control warning light changes to the Test Mode display upon initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration completion.
      9. Enter the normal mode from the Test Mode following Techstream prompts.

        HINT:

        Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.

  3. PERFORM INITIALIZATION OF LINEAR SOLENOID VALVE AND CALIBRATION (SST CHECK WIRE) 
    1. Clear the stored value of linear solenoid valve and calibration data.

        HINT:

        • The ABS warning, brake control warning lights and multi information display do not indicate the normal system code.
        • Illustrations may differ from the actual screen displayed depending on the specifications of the vehicle and customized settings.
      6. Remove the SST from the terminals of the DLC3.
      7. Using the check wire, perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration.
    2. Perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration.
      1. Turn the power switch off.

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
