Title: VARIABLE GEAR RATIO STEERING: VARIABLE GEAR RATIO STEERING SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

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.
