Steering Angle Sensor Output (C1434)
DESCRIPTION
Steering angle
sensor signals are input to the skid control ECU (brake booster with
master cylinder assembly) via the CAN communication system.
HINT:
When
a malfunction occurs in the communication line to the steering angle
sensor, U0126 (Lost Communication With Steering Angle Sensor Module) is
output.
If a DTC related to the CAN communication line is output, first troubleshoot the CAN communication line.
DTCs may be stored if one of the following occurs:
- Steering angle sensor zero point malfunction.
- Steering angle sensor signal malfunction.
- Steering angle sensor installation abnormality.

NOTICE:
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
PROCEDURE
(a) Clear the DTCs.

Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Clear DTCs
(b) Turn the power switch off.
(c) Turn the power switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTCs are output.
Click here
(d) Turn the power switch on (READY).
(e)
Drive the vehicle at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph), turn the steering
wheel to the right and left, and check that no speed sensor and/or yaw
rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output.

DTC C1434 is output. |
A |
CAN communication system DTCs are output. |
B |
Speed sensor and/or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output. |

HINT:
- If there is a malfunction in a speed sensor or the yaw rate and
acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly), an abnormal value may be
output even though the steering angle sensor is normal.
- If speed sensor and yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output
simultaneously, repair these malfunctions and inspect the steering angle
sensor.

Malfunction in Yaw Rate Sensor (C1436)
DESCRIPTION
The airbag ECU
assembly has a built-in yaw rate and acceleration sensor and detects the
vehicle condition using 2 circuits (GL1, GL2).
When
the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly)
detects improper installation of the yaw rate and acceleration sensor
(airbag ECU assembly) or an abnormality in the difference between the
yaw rate sensor value and the control value estimated based on the
acceleration sensor, steering angle sensor and speed sensor signals, DTC
C1436 is stored.
