DTC C15C1/74 Steering Angle Sensor Malfunction

DTC C15C2/74 Steering Angle Sensor B+ Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The steering control ECU detects a steering angle sensor malfunction by receiving an error signal from the steering angle sensor via CAN communication. If the steering control ECU detects this error signal, it will turn the master warning light on, store these DTCs, and stop VGRS operation.
