DTC Code DTC Name
C1521/25 Short in Motor Circuit
C1531/25 ECU Malfunction
C1532/25 ECU Malfunction
C1533/25 Temperature Sensor Circuit is Low or High
C1534/25 EEPROM Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

If the power steering ECU assembly stores these DTCs, it will shut off the motor relay circuit (built into the power steering ECU assembly) and stop power assist. However, power assist continues if DTC C1533/25 or C1534/25 is output.
