DESCRIPTION
Steering sensor signals are sent to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) via the CAN communication system. When there is a malfunction in the CAN communication system, it is detected by the steering 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 sensor, or an abnormal steering sensor zero point. |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
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 sensor has trouble, DTCs for the steering sensor may be stored even when the steering sensor is normal. When DTCs for the speed sensors or yaw rate sensor are output together with DTCs for the steering sensor, inspect and repair the speed sensor and yaw rate sensor first, and then inspect and repair the steering sensor.
PROCEDURE
CHECK DTC
Clear the DTCs Click here.
Turn the engine switch off.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTC is output Click here.
Start the engine.
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 sensor DTCs are output Click here.
Result | Proceed to |
---|---|
No CAN communication system, speed sensor, or yaw rate sensor DTCs are output | A |
CAN communication system DTC is output (for LHD) | B |
CAN communication system DTC is output (for RHD) | C |
Speed sensor or yaw rate sensor DTC is output | D |
Tech Tips
If there is a malfunction in any of the speed sensors or the yaw rate sensor, an abnormal value may be output although the steering sensor is normal.
If speed sensor and yaw rate sensor DTCs are output simultaneously, repair these two sensors first, and then inspect the steering sensor.
