DTC    C1528    Motor Rotation Angle Sensor Malfunction

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The motor rotation angle sensor detects the motor rotation angle and sends this information to the power steering ECU assembly.

DTC No.
DTC Detection Item

C104138E03


INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK POWER STEERING EARTH WIRE (BETWEEN POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY AND BODY GROUND)
  1. Check the installation condition of the power steering earth wire connected to the power steering link assembly.

    OK:
    The power steering earth wire is securely installed to the power steering link assembly and body ground.



NG
REINSTALL POWER STEERING EARTH WIRE
OK


2.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BETWEEN ECU ASSEMBLY AND MOTOR ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR)


    C110603E03
  1. Disconnect the R21 connector from the power steering link assembly.

  1. Disconnect the P42 connector from the power steering ECU assembly.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Resistance:
    Tester connection
    (Symbols)
    Condition
    Specified condition
    R21-1 (RZSN) - P42-4 (RZSN)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω
    R21-2 (RZG) - P42-13 (RZG)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω
    R21-3 (RZV) - P42-2 (RZV)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω
    R21-4 (RZCS) - P42-3 (RZCS)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω
    R21-1 (RZSN) - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher
    R21-2 (RZG) - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher
    R21-3 (RZV) - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher
    R21-4 (RZCS) - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher



NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK


3.INSPECT POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY (MOTOR ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR)


    C102954E03
  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Resistance:
    Tester connection
    (Symbols)
    Condition
    Specified condition
    R21-1 (RZSN) - R21-2 (RZG)
    Always
    50 to 140 Ω
    R21-3 (RZV) - R21-2 (RZG)
    Always
    50 to 140 Ω
    R21-4 (RZCS) - R21-2 (RZG)
    Always
    15 to 45 Ω

    NOTICE:
    If replacing the power steering link assembly, clear the rotation angle sensor calibration value, initialize the rotation angle sensor value, and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (Click here)



NG
REPLACE POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY
OK


4.REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY
  1. Replace the power steering ECU assembly (Click here).


NEXT


5.INITIALIZE ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR VALUE AND CALIBRATE TORQUE SENSOR ZERO POINT
  1. Initialize the rotation angle sensor value and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (Click here).


NEXT


6.RECONFIRM DTC
  1. Check for DTCs (Click here).

  1. Is DTC C1528 output?

    OK:
    DTC is not output.

    NOTICE:
    If replacing the power steering link assembly, clear the rotation angle sensor calibration value, initialize the rotation angle sensor value, and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (Click here)



NG
REPLACE POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY
OK
