DTC C1595/55: Lost Communication with Steering Angle Sensor Module; DTC C15C4/68: Steering Angle Signal (Test Mode DTC) (08/2010 - 08/2011): Procedure
- CHECK DTC (CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM)
- Check for DTCs in the CAN communication system. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
.RESULT
Result Proceed to DTC is not output A DTC is output B
B → See step 7
A: Go to next step
- Check for DTCs in the CAN communication system. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
.
- CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR
- Check if a steering angle sensor that complies with the vehicle specifications is installed.
OK
A steering angle sensor that complies with the vehicle specification is installed.
NG → See step 6
OK: Go to next step
- Check if a steering angle sensor that complies with the vehicle specifications is installed.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEERING CONTROL ECU - STEERING ANGLE SENSOR)

- Disconnect the E84 steering control ECU connector.
- Disconnect the E11 steering angle sensor connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E84-10 (SS1-) - E11-7 (SS1-) Always Below 1 Ω E84-19 (SS1+) - E11-8 (SS1+) E84-19 (SS1+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher E84-10 (SS1-) - Body ground E84-19 (SS1+) - E84-10 (SS1-)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR
- Disconnect the E84 steering control ECU connector.
- Move the shift lever to N.
- Jack up the vehicle.
- Check the waveform of the steering angle sensor using an oscilloscope.
HINT:
The voltage must be measured with the steering angle sensor connector connected.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition E84-19 (SS1+) - E84-10 (SS1-) Engine switch on (IG), steering wheel rotated slowly Pulse generation
(0 to 5 V)HINT:
The output voltage should fluctuate up and down similarly to the diagram when the wheel is turned slowly.
NG → See step 6
OK → See step 5
- REPLACE STEERING CONTROL ECU. Refer to REMOVAL
- REPLACE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR. Refer to REMOVAL
- GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING). Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
