Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The side blind zone alert system sensors are located behind the rear fascia and detect and report objects on either side of the vehicle, within a specified blind zone. The system alerts with a visual indicator placed on each side rear view mirror, to the presence of objects that may not be visible in the inside rearview mirror and outside rearview mirrors. When the system detects a vehicle in the side blind zone while driving forward, independent if passing a vehicle or being passed, an amber warning symbol will light up in the appropriate outside mirror. This indicates that it may be unsafe to change lanes. If the driver then activates the turn signal, the amber warning symbol starts flashing and a chime sounds to give an extra warning not to change lanes. The side object sensor module provides the voltage to the outside rearview mirror to illuminate the side blind zone alert symbol on the mirror.
Side blind zone alert is active from speeds of 10 km/h (6.2 MPH) up to 140 km/h (87 MPH). Driving faster deactivates the system, indicated by low lighting warning symbols in the mirrors. Driving under this speed again will turn off the warning symbols. If then a vehicle is detected in blind zone, the warning symbols will illuminate normally on the appropriate side. When the vehicle is started, both outside mirror displays will briefly come on to indicate that the system is operating.

Diagnostic Aids
Bumper sticks, fascia damage, labels, and heavy rain storms may also cause this condition.
The side blind zone alert system will read the GPS latitude and longitude on the serial data bus and calculate if the vehicle is within a Radio Astronomy zone. These zones are located in Europe and Japan and require the sensors to be turned off. The "Side Detection System Unavailable" message will be displayed to the driver when this occurs.

Diagnostic Aids
System Disabled possible reasons
Calibrate the front camera module after repair. Refer to Front View Camera Module Learn
When this occurs, the cruise will disengage and/or no cruise engagement with an "Adaptive Cruise: Temporarily Unavailable" message. Since the radars cannot visually "see" they rely on a complex blockage detection algorithm to predict blockage. Also, keep in mind that the front camera cannot see through objects or debris, so the camera can become visibly blocked. It is important to understand that disabling the adaptive cruise control, as a result of sensor blockage, is a normal function of the system and is intended to protect the driver from compromised system performance. Blockage detection is needed because if the radars/camera were/was truly blocked, the adaptive cruise control would not function properly.

Forward Collision Alert System Malfunction
Diagnostic Instructions
Diagnostic Fault Information
1. Forward Collision Alert Indicators inoperable
2. Forward Collision Alert Indicators on all the time
3. Forward Collision Alert Indicator dimming malfunction
Circuit/System Description
The forward collision alert system is controlled by the frontview camera module mounted on the windshield. The system is designed to detect vehicles directly ahead, within a distance of approximately 60 meters (197 ft). The forward collision alert system operates at speeds above 3 km/h (2 mph). When the system detects a vehicle in the path ahead, the green vehicle ahead alert indicator in the driver information center is illuminated. When approaching another vehicle too rapidly, the collision alert symbol will flash and the radio will beep or the haptic seat will pulse, depending on user configuration.
The red collision alert display will stay continuously illuminated if the vehicle ahead remains much too close. These actions are requested by the frontview camera module via serial data. The forward collision alert switch is part of the left steering wheel controls and is used to adjust the timing sensitivity of the front collision alert system.
Diagnostic Aids
Camera Mounting: Inspect the front view camera sensor, on the windshield near the inside rearview mirror, to make sure it is attached properly to the windshield. Calibrate the front camera module after repair. Refer to Front View Camera Module Learn.
Certain factors will affect the operation of the forward collision alert system. Forward collision alert is intended to detect vehicles. It is not intended to warn the driver of any objects that are not detected as a vehicle such as pedestrians, animals, signs, guard rails, bridges, construction barrels or other stationary or slow moving objects. In few cases the camera may inadvertently detect a vehicle that is not in the path ahead, or the system may occasionally provide unrealistic alerts. This could occur with a turning vehicle ahead, guard rails, traffic signs, or other stationary objects. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service. When the system is operating properly, the green vehicle ahead alert indicator will illuminate on the vehicle direction display when the system detects a vehicle in the path ahead. This indicates that all of the required operating conditions are met. The green vehicle ahead alert indicator will not appear when the system is having difficulty seeing other vehicles on the road. This can occur if the front view camera is blocked with mud, dirt, snow, ice, slush, if the windshield is damaged, or when weather limits visibility, such as while driving in fog, rain, or snow conditions. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service.
Additionally, the Front View Camera Disable History can give useful hints about what affected the operation of the forward collision alert system. For the Front View Camera Disable History, refer to DTC B1011.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert System Malfunction
Diagnostic Instructions
Diagnostic Fault Information
1. Rear Cross Traffic Alert Malfunction
Circuit/System Description
The side object sensor modules are located on each side of the vehicle behind the rear fascia and are not directly visible from outside the vehicle. The same sensors are also used for side blind zone alert. The sensors use radar to determine the presence of objects near the back of the vehicle. When an object is detected in the rear cross traffic zone, the module will send out a signal through serial data communication to turn on the visual icons and also audio chime or haptic notification. Each sensor is supplied B+ and ground. The right sensor receives an additional ground. Both sensors communicate independently on the serial data line. The serial data enters the left sensor in a pass-thru configuration, that connects to the right sensor. The scan tool is able to individually communicate with each sensor.
Diagnostic Aids
Bumper sticks, fascia damage, labels, and heavy rain storms may also cause this condition.
The blockage determination is performed with the vehicle in a drive gear.

Lane Departure Warning System Malfunction
Diagnostic Instructions
Diagnostic Fault Information
1. Lane departure warning switch malfunction.
2. Lane departure warning switch indicator malfunction.
Circuit/System Description
The lane departure warning system is enabled and disabled through the lane departure switch. When enabled, the lane departure warning indicator will illuminate.
For vehicles without UGN, the switch and indicator are connected to the frontview camera module. The frontview camera module supplies a reference voltage to the lane departure switch. When the switch is pressed, the signal circuit is grounded. When enabled, the frontview camera module will illuminate the indicator located in the switch when lane departure warning system is enabled.
With UGN, the indicator and switch are connected to the active safety control module. The active safety control module receives input from several modules including the Parking Assist Control Module to provide additional features. The lane departure warning alerts and DTCs are from the frontview camera module with the exception of the indicator DTCs which are sent by the active safety control module.
There are no switch DTCs for vehicles with the active safety control module.
When the system is operating and can detect the lane markings, the frontview camera module will request via serial data communications that the instrument cluster illuminate the green lane departure warning symbol. If the frontview camera module detects that the vehicle unintentionally crosses a lane marking without the turn signal being used, the module will request the instrument cluster to flash the amber lane departure warning indicator. An audible warning will also sound three times when the amber lane departure warning indicator in the instrument cluster is flashing.
Diagnostic Aids
Certain factors will affect the operation of the lane departure warning system. When the system is operating properly, the indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster. This indicates that all of the required operating conditions to permit lane departure warning have been met. The indicator will not appear when the system is having difficulty seeing the lines on the road or if the view of the frontview camera is blocked with mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, if the windshield is damaged, or when weather limits visibility, such as while driving in fog, rain, or snow conditions. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service. Additionally, lane departure warnings may occasionally occur in a properly operating vehicle due to tar marks, shadows, cracks in the road, or other road imperfections.
This is normal system operation and the vehicle does not require service. The driver information center may also display Lane Departure System Unavailable due to the temporary conditions listed above.
Additionally, the Frontview Camera Disable History can give useful hints about what affected the operation of the lane departure warning system. For the Frontview Camera Disable History, refer to Control Module References for scan tool information.
