Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1434; Steering Angle Sensor Output Malfunction; 2018 MY Camry [03/2017 - 06/2017]

DTC

C1434

Steering Angle Sensor Output Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) receives signals from the steering angle sensor via CAN communication.

HINT:

If there is a malfunction in the bus lines between the steering angle sensor and the CAN communication system, DTC U0126 (Lost Communication with Steering Angle Sensor Module) is output. When U0126 is output together with C1434, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by U0126 first.

DTCs may be stored if one of the following occurs:

  • Steering angle sensor zero point value malfunction.
  • Steering angle sensor signal malfunction.
  • Steering angle sensor signal stuck malfunction.
  • Steering angle sensor and the yaw rate sensor values inconsistent.
  • Steering angle sensor installation abnormality.

DTC No.

Trouble Area

C1434

Steering Angle Sensor Output Malfunction

Any of the following is detected:

  1. The difference between the zero point of the steering angle sensor and the estimated zero point exceeds 15 deg.
  2. The offset value of the steering angle sensor is -13.5 deg. or less or 13.5 deg. or more.
  3. The steering angle sensor value exceeds a specified value for 0.3 seconds or more.
  4. The change of the steering angle sensor value within 0.02 seconds is abnormal.
  5. The steering angle sensor value changes by less than 5 deg. and both left and right turns have been recognized.
  6. There is a difference between the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) estimated value and the steering angle sensor value due to an abnormal steering angle sensor value.
  • Steering angle sensor installation
  • Steering angle sensor power supply
  • Steering angle sensor
  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

HINT:

  • When U0073, U0123 and/or U0126 is output together with C1434, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by U0073, U0123 and/or U0126 first.

  • When a speed sensor or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) is malfunctioning, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be stored even though the steering angle sensor is normal. When DTCs for a speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) are output together with DTCs for the steering angle sensor, inspect and repair the speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) first, and then inspect and repair the steering angle sensor.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC

(a) Clear the DTCs.

Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Clear DTCs

(b) Turn the ignition switch off.

(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON again and check that no CAN communication system DTCs are output.

(d) Start the engine.

(e) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 50 km/h (31 mph) and turn the steering wheel to the right and left and then check that no speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) DTCs are output.

Result

Proceed to

No CAN communication system, speed sensor, or yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) DTCs are output

A

CAN communication system DTCs are output

B

Speed sensor and/or yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) DTCs are output

C

HINT:

  • If a speed sensor or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) is malfunctioning, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be stored even though the steering angle sensor is normal.
  • If speed sensor and yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) DTCs are output simultaneously, repair these malfunctions and then inspect the steering angle sensor.
