VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM(for Vacuum Brake Booster), Diagnostic DTC:C1434

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 is detected by the steering angle sensor zero point malfunction diagnostic function.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1434 An error in communication between the skid control ECU and the steering angle sensor, or an abnormal steering angle sensor zero point.
  • Steering angle sensor power supply

  • Steering angle sensor (Spiral cable sub-assembly)

  • Brake actuator assembly (Skid control ECU)

Refer to DTC C1432 Click here.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • Do not remove the steering 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.

Tech Tips


  • 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 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 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


    1. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    2. Turn the ignition switch off.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output Click here.

    4. Start the engine.

    5. 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 Click here.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      No CAN communication system, speed sensor, or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output A
      CAN communication system DTC is output for LHD without Entry and Start System B
      CAN communication system DTC is output for LHD with Entry and Start System C
      Speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTC is output D

      Tech Tips


      • 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.

  2. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (BAT)


    1. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking parts and connecting parts of the connectors.

    2. Disconnect the G33 steering angle sensor connector.
