C1515





POWER ASSIST SYSTEMS: POWER STEERING SYSTEM: C1515,C1525: Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Undone


DESCRIPTION

These DTCs do not indicate a malfunction. The power steering ECU stores these DTCs when it determines that the rotation angle sensor value initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration have not been performed.





INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
If the power steering ECU and steering column assembly have been replaced, perform the rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration Programming and Relearning.

PROCEDURE

1. INITIALIZE ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR AND CALIBRATE TORQUE SENSOR ZERO POINT

(a) Initialize the rotation angle sensor value and calibrate the torque sensor zero point Programming and Relearning.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Check for DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Result:





NOTICE:
If DTC C1515 or C1525 is output even though the rotation angle sensor value initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration have been performed, confirm the procedure again, and perform the calibration and initialization 3 times.

HINT
Replace the power steering ECU if DTC C1515 or C1525 is still output after performing rotation angle sensor value initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration 3 times.

B -- END
A -- Continue to next step.

3. REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU

(a) Replace the power steering ECU Removal.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

4. INITIALIZE ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR AND CALIBRATE TORQUE SENSOR ZERO POINT

(a) Initialize the rotation angle sensor value and calibrate the torque sensor zero point Programming and Relearning.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

5. CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Check for DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Result:





NOTICE:
If DTC C1515 or C1525 is output even though the rotation angle sensor value initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration have been performed, confirm the procedure again, and perform the calibration and initialization 3 times.

HINT
Replace the steering column assembly if DTC C1515 or C1525 is still output after performing rotation angle sensor value initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration 3 times.

B -- END

A -- REPLACE STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY Removal
