Lexus NX: Brake Override System

DESCRIPTION

When the vehicle is being driven with the accelerator pedal depressed, depressing the brake pedal without releasing the accelerator pedal will activate the brake override system to restrict driving torque. The conditions for activating the brake override system as well as the items that are controlled are explained below.

Activation Conditions:

  • The accelerator pedal and brake pedal are depressed at the same time.

    NOTICE:

    Brake override control may not be performed depending on the relationship between accelerator opening and vehicle speed.

Items Controlled:

  • Controls driving force

    HINT:

    • When the control is operating, requested accelerator torque is controlled in accordance with the brake pedal stroke.
    • When the driving force is reduced to a specified level because the accelerator pedal and brake pedal are depressed at the same time, an indicator is displayed on the meter. (Operation of the system can be confirmed when the indicator is displayed on the meter.)
Deactivation Conditions:

  • The accelerator pedal or brake pedal is released.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Inspection Method

Drive at 10 km/h (6 mph), depress the accelerator pedal by 1/2 to 3/4 and keep it in that position. Under these conditions, if driving torque is controlled when the brake pedal is depressed by the left foot of the driver, it can be confirmed that the brake override system has operated.

CAUTION:

Perform this road test only in an appropriate safe location, in accordance with all local laws.

Pay careful attention to the surroundings when performing the road test.

HINT:

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 a loss of power (driving torque) after the accelerator and brake pedals have both been intentionally depressed, explain that this is not a malfunction, and depressing both the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time should be avoided.
