The Steering angle sensor(SAS) is joined to the multi function switch and uses a CAN communication.
The SAS is used to determine turning direction and speed of the steering wheel.
The HECU uses the signals from the SAS when performing ESP-related calculations.
The HECU checks the CAN communcation lines for normal ESP control, and sets this code if an SAS message is not received within predefined time.
Item | Detecting Condition | Possible cause |
DTC Strategy | ● CAN massage monitoring | ● Faulty SAS ● Faulty HECU ● Open circuit in SAS line |
Monitoring Period | ● Continuous | |
Enable Conditions | ● Faults are detected if SAS message was not received on time by the CAN controller of HECU. | |
Fail Safe | ● Inhibit the ESP control and allow the ABS/EBD control. Meanwhile, stop checking the ESP switch failure under the ESP control. |
