Lexus NX: Accumulator Pressure Sensor (C1365)

DESCRIPTION

The accumulator pressure sensor is built into the brake actuator (brake booster with master cylinder assembly).

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) detects the accumulator pressure from the data sent from the accumulator pressure sensor, and then starts and stops the pump motor by operating the motor relay.

This DTC may be stored if the accumulator pressure drops due to frequent braking (this is not a malfunction).

DTC No.

  • INF Code: 331
    • Sensor supply voltage (VACC) is 4.54 V or less, or 5.46 V or more for 0.8 seconds or more.
  • INF Code: 332
    • Accumulator pressure sensor output voltage (PACC) is less than 8%, or 88% or more of sensor supply voltage for 0.8 seconds or more (less than 0.4 V, or 4.4 V or more for 0.8 seconds or more).
  • INF Code: 333
    • Fluctuation of sensor output is out of specification (the difference between the present value and last value is 7.5 MPa (77.0 kgf/cm2, 1088 psi)) for 0.8 seconds or more.
  • INF Code: 334
    • At a vehicle speed of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more and accumulator pressure sensor output value of 19.7 MPa (200.8 kgf/cm2, 2857 psi) or less, the pump motor does not operate for 12 seconds or more.

(d) Depress the brake pedal 4 or 5 times to operate the pump motor.

(e) Wait for 30 seconds without depressing the brake pedal.

(f) Check that the accumulator pressure sensor output value change is within the specified range.

OK:

Accumulator pressure sensor output value change is less than 0.55 V.
