DTC C1681: Front Camera Feedback Malfunction [06/2018 - 09/2022]: Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2022 Lexus ES 350, 2022 Lexus ES 250, 2021 Lexus ES 350, 2021 Lexus ES 250, and 2020 Lexus ES 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARKING ASSIST ECU - FRONT TELEVISION CAMERA ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the N43 parking assist ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the B5 front television camera assembly connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N43-15 (BCB+) - B5-6 (BCB+) Always Below 1 Ω
      N43-36 (BCV+) - B5-3 (BCV+) Always Below 1 Ω
      N43-13 (BCV-) - B5-2 (BCV-) Always Below 1 Ω
      N43-37 (BGND) - B5-5 (BGND) Always Below 1 Ω
      N43-14 (SGND) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N43-15 (BCB+) or B5-6 (BCB+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N43-36 (BCV+) or B5-3 (BCV+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N43-13 (BCV-) or B5-2 (BCV-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N43-37 (BGND) or B5-5 (BGND) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK PARKING ASSIST ECU (BCV-, BGND) 
    1. Disconnect the N43 parking assist ECU connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      (Parking Assist ECU)

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      37 (BGND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      13 (BCV-) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE PARKING ASSIST ECU. Refer to  REMOVAL [06/2018 - 09/2022] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK PARKING ASSIST ECU (BCB+, BGND) 
    1. Remove the parking assist ECU with the connector still connected.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N43-37 (BGND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N43-15 (BCB+) - N43-37 (BGND) Engine switch on (IG) 5.5 to 7.05 V

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE PARKING ASSIST ECU. Refer to  REMOVAL [06/2018 - 09/2022] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. CHECK FRONT TELEVISION CAMERA ASSEMBLY (BCV+, BGND) 
    1. Remove the parking assist ECU with the connector still connected.
    2. Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform of the front television camera assembly.

      HINT: 

      A waterproof connector is used for the front television camera assembly. Therefore, inspect the waveform at the parking assist ECU with the connector connected.

      *b Waveform 1 (camera lens not covered, displaying an image)
      *c Waveform 2 (camera lens covered, blacking out the screen) *d Synchronization Signal
      *e Video Waveform - -

      HINT: 

      • The video waveform changes according to the image sent by the front television camera assembly.
      • The video waveform is constantly output when the engine switch is on (ACC).
