POWER STEERING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1515, C1516, C1525, C1526

DTC Code DTC Name
C1515 Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Undone
C1516 Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Incomplete
C1525 Rotation Angle Sensor Initialization Undone
C1526 Rotation Angle Sensor Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION


DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Procedure
C1515 This DTC is detected when torque sensor zero point calibration has not been performed. There is no malfunction if this DTC is not output again after performing zero point calibration.
C1516 Steering zero point calibration is incomplete due to the steering wheel being touched during calibration. There is no malfunction if this DTC is not output again after clearing the DTCs and torque sensor calibration value, and performing zero point calibration.
C1525 This DTC is detected when rotation angle sensor value initialization has not been performed. There is no malfunction if this DTC is not output again after performing rotation angle sensor value initialization.
C1526 Rotation angle sensor value initialization is incomplete due to the steering wheel being touched during calibration. There is no malfunction if this DTC is not output again after clearing the DTCs and torque sensor calibration value, and performing rotation angle sensor value initialization.
