Brake pedal sensor Calibration

The brake pedal sensor calculates the pedal full stroke according to the preset zero. Therefore, zeroing adjustment is necessary when first installed.Calibration must be performed as following cases.

•	After changing the brake pedal assembly (you cannot change only the sensor)

•	After changing the BAU (Brake Actuation Unit)

•	When error codes C1380 (calibration) or C1379 (signal error) are detected.

•	After bleeding IBAU & PSU line.

Calibration procedure

The calibration must be done while the vehicle is parked without stepping on the brake pedal and while there is no vibration on the vehicle.

1.	Connect the GDS. (CAN line or OBD connector)

2.	Turn ignition switch ON.

3.	Select calibration of the brake pedal sensor.

4.	Follow prompts displayed on the GDS screen to complete brake pedal sensor calibration.

5.	Turn ignition switch off after calibration procedure.

6.	Confirm success or failure of calibration.
