C1434





BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1434: Steering Angle Sensor Output Malfunction
C1434 - Steering Angle Sensor Output Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

Steering angle sensor signals are sent to the skid control ECU via the CAN communication system. When there is a malfunction in the CAN communication system, it is detected by the steering angle sensor zero point malfunction diagnostic function.





WIRING DIAGRAM

Refer to DTC C1432 C1432.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
- Do not remove the steering angle sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly.
- When replacing the spiral cable sub-assembly, confirm that the replacement part is of the correct specification.
- Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT
- When DTC U0073, U0123, U0124 and/or U0126 is output together with DTC C1434, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by DTC U0073, U0123, U0124 and/or U0126 first U0073.
- When any of the speed sensors or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor has trouble, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be stored even when the steering angle sensor is normal. When DTCs for the speed sensors or yaw rate and acceleration sensor are output together with DTCs for the steering angle sensor, inspect and repair the speed sensor and yaw rate and acceleration sensor first, and then inspect and repair the steering angle sensor.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(b) Turn the engine switch off.

(c) Turn the engine switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(d) Start the engine.

(e) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph) and turn the steering wheel to the right and left, and then check that no speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Result





HINT
- If there is a malfunction in any of the speed sensors or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor, an abnormal value may be output although the steering angle sensor is normal.
- If speed sensor and yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output simultaneously, repair these two sensors first, and then inspect the steering angle sensor.
