DTC C1511 Torque Sensor Circuit Malfunction

DTC C1512 Torque Sensor Circuit Malfunction

DTC C1513 Torque Sensor Circuit Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

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

DTC No.
