Lexus NX: Steering Angle Sensor Unusual Bank Angle Detected (C1440)

Lexus NX Service Manual / Brake / Brake Control / Dynamic Control Systems / Electronically Controlled Brake System / Steering Angle Sensor Unusual Bank Angle Detected (C1440)

DESCRIPTION

If the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) determines that the vehicle is being driven at a steep bank angle, the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) stores DTC C1440 while VSC operation is temporarily disabled.

This is not a malfunction if the system and sensor circuits are normal and if normal VSC operation resumes.

DTC No.
