VARIABLE GEAR RATIO STEERING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C15C6/77

DTC Code DTC Name
C15C6/77 IG Power Supply Voltage

DESCRIPTION

The VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU) monitors the IG power supply voltage.

If the VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU) detects a malfunction, it turns the master warning light on, and stores DTC C15C6/77.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area Warning Indicate Return-to-normal Condition
C15C6/77 IG Power Supply Voltage

Both conditions are met for approximately 3 seconds or more:


  • The engine switch is on (IG).

  • When the IG voltage is 4 V or less or 18.5 V or higher, an open or short in the IG circuit or an internal malfunction in the ECU is detected.

  • IG1 NO. 2 fuse

  • Battery

  • Charging system

  • VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU)

  • Harness or connector

 Comes on Engine switch on (IG) again

      Component with harness connected

      (VGRS ECU [Front Steering Control ECU])

      Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Tech Tips

      With the connector connected to the VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU), measure the voltage from the rear of the connector.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      K17-4 (IG) - A60-1 (PGND) Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
