DRIVE-BY-WIRE CONTROL OPERATION [MZR 2.5]

Brake Override System

Operation of brake override system

In the event of any malfunction in the accelerator system, the vehicle is equipped with a
sub-system that prioritizes the brake operation over the accelerator pedal operation.
Specifically, the sub-system functions to close throttle valve when the brake pedal is
depressed while the accelerator pedal is depressed to safely decelerate the vehicle to a full
stop.

Brake If either one of the following conditions is met with the brake pedal
override depressed for 1 s or more while the accelerator pedal is depressed, the PCM
operation adjusts the throttle valve opening angle so that the engine speed is the
conditions specification*.

While driving vehicle

Accelerator pedal opening angle: 5% or more from fully-

closed

Vehicle speed: 10 km/h {6.2 mph} or more

In gear

Engine speed: 1,150 rpm or more

While vehicle stopped

Accelerator pedal opening angle: 5% or more from fully-

closed

Shift lever position: neutral (MTX)

Selector lever position: N position (ATX)

Engine speed: 1,150 rpm or more

End brake To return the throttle to normal operation, the following conditions must be
override met.
operation
Accelerator pedal is not depressed

Brake pedal is not depressed

 NOTE:

Cycling the key off and back on will also end brake override operation.

For MTX vehicles, engine speed is 1,200 rpm when in neutral, and 1,100 rpm when not in
neutral. For ATX vehicles, engine speed is 1,200 rpm when in N position, and 1,100 rpm
when in D position.

Disabling of brake override system

If the servicing procedure requiring the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal to be
depressed together, operation of the brake override system can be prevented, if
necessary.

Disable brake If the following conditions are met for 10 s within 30 s after switching
override the ignition ON (engine off), the brake override system is disabled until
operation the activate brake override operation conditions are met.
conditions
Shift lever position: neutral (MTX)

Selector lever position: N position (ATX)

Vehicle speed: 0 km/h {0 mph}

Accelerator pedal fully depressed

Brake pedal depressed

Activate brake Cycling the key off and back on will activate the brake override
override operation conditions.

Brake warning light illumination request (vehicles without malfunction warning light)

If the following condition is met, the PCM sends the brake warning light illumination
request signal to the instrument cluster. The brake warning light illuminates to alert the
driver that there is a malfunction in the brake system.

Brake switch No. 1 or 2 malfunction is detected

Malfunction warning light illumination request (vehicles with malfunction warning light)

If the following condition is met, the PCM sends the malfunction warning light illumination
request signal to the instrument cluster. The malfunction warning light illuminates to alert
the driver that there is a malfunction in the brake system.
