DTC C1231/31 MALFUNCTION IN STEERING ANGLE

SENSOR CIRCUIT

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU inputs the steering sensor signal through the CAN communication. When a malfunc-
tion occurs in the communication line with the steering sensor, DTC U0126/63 (malfunction in communica-
tion with steering angle sensor) is output.
DTC No. DTC Detecting Condition Trouble Area

Steering angle sensor malfunction signal is received when
data transmission is valid (internal malfunction is detected

Steering angle sensor
C1231/31 at sensor self–check).

Skid control ECU

A signal of +B open in steering angle sensor is received
when communication with sensor is valid.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

When U0126 is output together with C1231/31, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by
U0126/63 first.

When the speed sensor or the yaw rate (deceleration) sensor has trouble, DTCs for the steering angle
sensor may be output even when the steering angle sensor is normal. When DTCs for the speed sen-
sor or yaw rate sensor are output together with other DTCs for the steering angle sensor, inspect and
repair the speed sensor and yaw rate (deceleration) sensor first, and then inspect and repair the steer-
ing angle sensor.
1 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR(MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)

(a) Using the hand–held tester, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connectors
between the skid control ECU and steering angle sensor (see page 05–956).

OK:
There are no momentary interruptions.

OK

2 READ VALUE OF HAND–HELD TESTER

(a) Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the power switch ON (READY).
(c) Select the DATA LIST mode on the hand–held tester.
Measurement Item /
Item Normal Condition
Range (Display)
Steering sensor/ Left turn: Increase

Min.: –1152 deg, Max.: 1150.875 deg Right turn: Decrease
(d) Check that the steering angle sensor value of the steering angle sensor observed in the hand–held
tester changes when the steering wheel is moved.
OK:
Steering angle value should change.
NG Go to step 3

OK

REPLACE SKID CONTROL ECU ASSY (SEE PAGE 32–68)

NOTICE:
When replacing the skid control ECU assy, perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibra-
tion (see page 05–958).
