DTC C1447 External System Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) acquires the steering angle sensor zero point every time the ignition switch is turned ON and the vehicle is driven at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for approximately 5 seconds. The ECU also stores previous zero points.

DTC Code
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
C1447
Due to the VGRS system calibration request, the steering angle sensor zero point value has been cleared..
  1. Speed sensor
  2. Steering Angle Sensor (Spiral with Sensor Cable Sub-assembly)
  3. Yaw rate and acceleration sensor (Airbag sensor assembly)
  4. VGRS ECU (Steering control ECU)*
  1. *: w/ VGRS System

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.RECONFIRM DTC

  1. Clear the DTCs (Click here).

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Turn the ignition switch ON again and check that no CAN communication system DTCs are output (Click here).

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph) or more and turn the steering wheel to the right and left and check that no speed sensor or yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output (Click here).

    		Proceed to
    DTC C1447 is output.
    		A
    CAN communication system DTCs are output.
    		B
    Speed sensor, yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) and/or steering angle sensor (spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly) DTCs are output.
    		C
    DTCs are not output.

    HINT:
    1. For the CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING), refer to the following:
      1. for LHD (with Central Gateway ECU): Click here
      2. for LHD (without Central Gateway ECU): Click here
      3. for RHD (with Central Gateway ECU): Click here
      4. for RHD (without Central Gateway ECU): Click here
    2. When CAN communication DTCs are output, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by CAN communication first.
    3. If a speed sensor or the yaw rate and acceleration sensor is malfunctioning, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be stored even though the steering angle sensor is normal.
    4. If speed sensor and yaw rate and acceleration sensor DTCs are output simultaneously, repair these malfunctions and then inspect the steering angle sensor.
    5. If DTC C1447 is not output again, the DTC may have been stored due to a temporary loss of steering angle sensor zero point calibration, such as a loss of calibration due to the power source voltage being low.

2.CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION

  1. Drive the vehicle straight ahead at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for at least 5 seconds.

  1. Check that the steering wheel is correctly centered while driving straight ahead.

    HINT:
    If front wheel alignment and steering are adjusted as a result of an off-center steering wheel, acquire the yaw rate and acceleration sensor zero point again after the adjustments are completed.
    OK:
    The steering wheel is correctly centered.

ADJUST FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT OR STEERING (Click here)
OK


3.RECONFIRM DTC

  1. Clear the DTCs (Click here).

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph) or more and turn the steering wheel to the right and left.

  1. Check if the same DTC is output (Click here).
