C1445 Description

 

The Skid Control ECU acquires the steering angle sensor zero point every time the ignition switch is turned to ON and the vehicle is driven at 50 km/h (31 mph) or more for approximately 30 seconds. The Skid Control ECU also stores previous zero points. The Skid Control ECU Module monitors the Steering Angle Sensor. The Skid Control ECU sets the OBDII code when the Steering Angle Sensor is not to factory specifications.
