C1336 2016 Toyota RAV4 Code - Zero Point Calibration of Acceleration Sensor Undone

Code C1336 indicates that the Zero Point Calibration of the acceleration sensor has not been completed or is undone.

Common symptoms include the activation of warning lights like the ABS or traction control lights and possible issues with stability or traction control functionality.

This code is typically caused by an incomplete or incorrect Zero Point Calibration after repairs, battery disconnection, or replacement of components like the ABS module or yaw rate sensor.

Perform a Zero Point Calibration using a compatible diagnostic scan tool. Ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and follow the manufacturer’s calibration procedure.

While the vehicle may still be drivable, stability and traction control systems may not function correctly, posing a safety risk in certain driving conditions.

You’ll need an OBDII scan tool or diagnostic software capable of performing Zero Point Calibration, such as Toyota Techstream.

Replacement of parts is not usually required unless there is a fault in the acceleration sensor, yaw rate sensor, or related wiring.

Zero Point Calibration involves resetting the baseline reference for the acceleration sensor and yaw rate sensor. This process typically requires a scan tool and must be performed on a level surface with the vehicle stationary.

Yes, disconnecting or replacing the battery can reset the system and may require a Zero Point Calibration to clear the code.

The cost depends on whether you perform the calibration yourself or take it to a mechanic. A professional scan tool calibration typically costs between $50 and $150.
