POWER ASSIST SYSTEMS: POWER STEERING SYSTEM: C1511-C1514, C1521, C1524, C1528, C1531-C1555: Torque Sensor Circuit Malfunction
C1555 - Motor Relay Welding Failure

DESCRIPTION

The torque sensor converts the rotation torque input to the steering wheel into an electrical signal and sends it to the power steering ECU. Based on this signal, the ECU detects steering effort.

The power steering ECU, power steering torque sensor, power steering motor and motor rotation angle sensor are built into the steering column assembly.
