DTC C1290: Abnormal Zero Point of Steering Angle Sensor [10/2020 - 10/2023]: Description

The skid control ECU assembly acquires the steering sensor zero point every time the power switch is turned on (READY) and the vehicle is driven at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for approximately 5 seconds. The skid control ECU assembly also stores the previous zero point.

If the front wheel alignment or the steering wheel position is adjusted without disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal, or if yaw rate sensor zero point is not acquired after the adjustments have been completed, the skid control ECU assembly detects the difference between the previous zero point and newly acquired zero point and stores this DTC to indicate a poor adjustment.

Warning operation for the steering sensor zero point malfunction will be canceled by turning the power switch off.
