DTC C1439/66: Steering Angle Sensor Initialization Incomplete; DTC C1445/66: Vehicle Driven with Steering Angle Sensor not Initialized [03/2017 - 09/2018]: Procedure

1. Clear the DTCs.

   Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [03/2017 - 09/2018]

   Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Clear DTCs 

2. Turn the engine switch off.
3. Turn the engine switch on (IG) again and check that no CAN communication system DTCs are output.

   Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM [03/2017 - 06/2019]

4. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 35 km/h (22 mph), turn the steering wheel to the right and left, and check that no speed sensor, yaw rate sensor and steering sensor DTCs are output.

   Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [03/2017 - 09/2018]

   Result

   Result	Proceed to
   DTCs C1439/66 and/or C1445/66 are output.	A
   CAN communication system DTCs are output.	B
   Speed sensor, yaw rate sensor and/or steering sensor DTCs are output.	C
   DTCs C1439/66 and C1445/66 are not output.	D

   HINT: 

   • When CAN communication system DTCs are output, repair the CAN communication system before repairing each corresponding sensor.
   • If there is a malfunction in a speed sensor or the yaw rate sensor, an abnormal value may be output although the steering sensor is normal.
   • If speed sensor and yaw rate sensor DTCs are output simultaneously, repair these malfunctions and inspect the steering sensor.
   • If DTC C1439/66 and/or C1445/66 is not output again, the DTC may have been stored due to a temporary loss of the steering angle zero point calibration, such as when the power source voltage drops.

REPAIR CIRCUITS INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTCS. Refer to  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [03/2017 - 09/2018] 

Result: 

D 

USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [03/2017 - 04/2020] 

Result: 

A 

See step  2

1. Drive the vehicle straight ahead at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for at least 5 seconds.
2. Check that the steering wheel is centered correctly while driving straight ahead.

   HINT: 

   If the front wheel alignment and steering position are adjusted as a result of an off-center steering wheel, acquire yaw rate sensor zero point again after the adjustments are completed.

   OK

   The steering wheel is centered correctly.
