Stationary aiming (Static aiming)

1. Empty the vehicle by having all occupants leave the vehicle and remove all the cargo except for the spare tire, jack and tools.
2. Adjust the air pressure of each tire to the specified value. (See WHEEL AND TIRE SPECIFICATION .)
3. Move the vehicle to level ground.
   CAUTION:

   • If the setting surface height and angle between the vehicle and the target differs, correct FSC aiming cannot be done. Perform the FSC aiming with the vehicle and target setting surface on level ground.

4. Verify that there are no obstructions such as metal objects in the shaded areas shown in the figure.
   CAUTION:

   • If the FSC aiming is performed with obstructions such as white and black patterned objects or reflective metal in the shaded areas, the FSC will determine such obstructions as targets and the FSC aiming procedure will not be performed correctly. Move all obstructions away from the shaded areas, and when performing the aiming, do not have personnel standing in the shaded areas.

5. Perform the DTC inspection for the FSC using the M-MDS and verify that no DTCs other than B115E:54 are displayed. (See DTC INSPECTION [FORWARD SENSING CAMERA (FSC)] .)
   NOTE:

   • Because DTC B115E:54 is output if aiming is not performed, continue to perform the FSC aiming if only DTC B115E:54 is output. (See DTC TABLE [FORWARD SENSING CAMERA (FSC)] .)
6. Adjust the SST (plum-bob) so that it is aligned with the center of the brand emblem, determine the center position at the front of the vehicle, and mark the center position (point A) on the floor surface.

   NOTE:

   • The center of the brand emblem indicates the center position of the vehicle.
7. Adjust the SST (plum-bob) so that it is aligned with the center of the brand emblem, determine the center position at the rear of the vehicle, and mark the center position (point B) on the floor surface.

   NOTE:

   • The center of the brand emblem indicates the center position of the vehicle.
8. Secure the end of the leveling line over point B.
   NOTE:

   • Use a commercially-available leveling line.

9. Pull the unsecured end of the leveling line over the vehicle and to the front and adjust it so that it passes over point A.
10. Mark the line (position A) at the point 160 cm {63 in} from point A and in the direction forward of the vehicle.

11. Mark the points (points D and E) 50 cm {20 in} from point C on the line which runs perpendicular to the vehicle center line.

12. Pull the connected points D, C and E lines (target setting line).
13. Print out 6 sheets of each of the following target papers without using scaling.
    NOTE:

    • If the target sheets cannot be printed, follow the dimensions shown in Step  15 to make target sheets.
14. Cut the printed target sheets along the dotted line and line up the two sheets at their respective center marks as shown in the figure, and then affix cellophane tape to the back of the target.
    CAUTION:

    • When taping the two target sheets together, if cellophane tape is affixed to the front of the target sheets it could reflect light and adversely affect the aiming accuracy. When taping the two target sheets together, affix the cellophane tape to the back of the target pattern.

15. Verify that the taped-together target is of the dimensions shown in the figure.

16. Affix double-sided adhesive tape to the back of the target.
    CAUTION:

    • When affixing the target, if tape is affixed to the front of the target it could reflect light and adversely affect the aiming accuracy. When affixing the target, affix the double-sided adhesive tape to the back of the target, and then affix it to the board.
17. Align the target to the height shown in the figure, and affix it to a board.
    NOTE:

    • Use a wooden board which does not reflect light to affix the target.

18. Align the center of the target with point C using the SST (plum bob).

19. Align so that the board and the target setting line are level with the center of point C.
20. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
21. After the vehicle is identified, select the following items from the initial screen of the M-MDS.
    1. "Electrical"
    2. "FSC Aiming"
    3. "Static Aiming"
22. Input the following values according to the instructions on the M-MDS screen.

    Item	Value
    	mm
    Input the distance from the target to the front wheel center.	2527

23. Perform the FSC aiming procedure according to the directions on the M-MDS.
    CAUTION:

    • Switch the ignition OFF, and after 1 min or more has elapsed, switch the ignition ON. Otherwise, the master warning light in the instrument cluster may turn on and DTC U053B:82/83 may be output.
24. Verify the M-MDS display.
    • If "Procedure successful" is displayed
      • FSC aiming completed
    • If "Procedure unsuccessful" is displayed
      • Perform an inspection according to the following table for the error code procedure.
      • If an error code other than the error codes in the following table is displayed, verify the following and re-perform the FSC aiming if there is no malfunction, as there could be a communication error between the FSC and the diagnostic tester.
    1. Is the battery positive voltage for the vehicle 8 V or more?
    2. Is the ignition switched ON (engine off or on)?

Error code 01/05/31 

Error code 02/03/04 

Error code 06/08
