| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| 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 will be detected by the steering angle sensor zero point malfunction diagnostic function.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| C1434 | Error in communication between the skid control ECU and the steering angle sensor, or abnormal steering angle sensor zero point. |
|
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
When U0073, U0123, U0124 and/or U0126 is output together with C1434, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by U0073, U0123, U01245 and/or U0126 first (Click here).
When any of the speed sensors or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor has trouble, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be output 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
CHECK DTC
Clear the DTCs (Click here).
Turn the ignition switch off.
Turn the ignition switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output (Click here).
Start the engine.
Drive the vehicle and turn the steering wheel to the right and left at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph) and check that no speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output (Click here).

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 inspect the steering angle sensor.
INSPECT STEERING ANGLE SENSOR (POWER SOURCE TERMINAL)
Turn the ignition switch off.
Remove the steering wheel and the column cover lower.
Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
Disconnect the steering angle sensor connector.
Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

INSPECT STEERING ANGLE SENSOR (GROUND TERMINAL)
Turn the ignition switch off.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
