Default Pcs?

Hi all,
This might sound like a dumb question, but I just bought my LS430 UL this weekend and I can't figure out if it has PCS or not. Is the same radar that's used for cruise also used for PCS?
Thanks!

If you have the plastic square over the emblem on the grill, you have PCS. It uses the same radar for PCS and cruise. If you don't have PCS your radar sensor is in the lower bumper grill.

Minor note: PCS uses DRCC (Dynamic RADAR Curise Control) with its sensor behind the square shiled in the center of the grille. The "L" logo is is this shield.
Without PCS, you would have the DLCC (Dynamic LASER Cruise Control) sensor in the lower bumper.
