B15E6 on Toyota
Side Television Camera Signal Input Malfunction
B15E6 on Toyota vehicles indicates side television camera signal input malfunction. Au7o has documented this code across 2 Toyota models — most commonly on Camry, RAV4. B15E6 is a Toyota/Lexus body code stored by the navigation receiver assembly when it does not receive the expected video signal from the parking assist ECU for the side camera input. On US-market vehicles it is frequently benign: Toyota TSB T-TT-0379-15 (Dec 2015) states that some 2014-2015 RAV4 vehicles store B15E6 for a camera system not fitted to US-spec cars, that it has no adverse effect on navigation operation, and that no repair should be attempted. On vehicles actually equipped with a side/perimeter camera, it points to the camera, its video wiring, or the parking assist ECU. Because B-codes are manufacturer-defined, confirm the code text with a Toyota-capable scan tool if your vehicle is another make.
Common Causes of B15E6
- •Benign stored code on 2014-2015 US-market RAV4 for a side camera system not fitted (TSB T-TT-0379-15) — ignore, do not repair
- •Failed side-view camera on equipped vehicles
- •Open, shorted, or chafed video signal wiring between the camera and the parking assist ECU
- •Loose, corroded, or backed-out connector at the camera, parking assist ECU, or navigation receiver
- •Faulty parking assist ECU not outputting the video signal
- •Faulty navigation receiver assembly (the module that stores the code)
