Title: POWER ASSIST SYSTEMS: POWER STEERING SYSTEM (for HV Model): C151A17; Power Steering Torque Sensor "A" Supply Voltage Circuit Voltage Above Threshold; 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla Corolla HV [09/2022 -        ]

DTC

C151A17

Power Steering Torque Sensor "A" Supply Voltage Circuit Voltage Above Threshold

DESCRIPTION

The power steering ECU assembly supplies a voltage of 5 V to the torque sensor (electric power steering column sub-assembly) and monitors the voltage value of the Hall IC inside the torque sensor (electric power steering column sub-assembly) which changes in response to changes in the magnetic flux density (steering torque) detected by the Hall IC, and calculates the assist torque.

While DTC C151A17 is detected, power assist is stopped due to fail-safe operation.

DTC No.
