DTC

C1AEC

Front Sensor Communication Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when there is an open or short circuit in the communication line between the No. 1 ultrasonic sensors (front sensor) and the ECU, or when there is a malfunction in a No. 1 ultrasonic sensor (front sensor).

DTC Code
