DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible cause
DTC Strategy
  • Signal Monitoring
  1. Short of steering angle sensor circuit
  2. Faulty steering angle sensor
Case 1 Monitoring Period
  • Continuously on driving
Threshold Value
  • In case of straight and stable driving over 30kph, between previous SAS offset and mean of estimated SAS offset difference is more than 25deg.
Case 2 Monitoring Period
  • Continuous (no low-voltage and no errors after IGN on)
Threshold Value
  • Sensor value is out of the physical range of steer for 600ms.
Case 3 Monitoring Period
  • Continuous (no low-voltage, no errors after IGN on and vehicle speed of over 25kph)
Threshold Value
  • If sensor value difference is more than 40deg for over 40ms.
Case 4 Monitoring Period
  • Continuously on driving
Threshold Value
  • In case of stable driving, between measured SAS offset and estimated SAS offset is more than 10deg.
Case 5 Monitoring Period
  • Continuously on driving
Threshold Value
  • In case of driving over 70kph, between estimated SAS vaules and measured SAS sensor value is not proper to driving condition
Fail Safe
  • Inhibit the ESP (ESC) control and allow the ABS/EBD control
  • The ESP (ESC) warning lamps are activated
