Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Steering Angle Sensor Unusual Bank Angle Detected (C1440)
DESCRIPTION
If the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) determines that the vehicle is being driven at a steep bank angle, the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) stores DTC C1440 while VSC operation is temporarily disabled. It is not a malfunction if the system and sensor circuits are normal and if the normal VSC operation resumes, which automatically clears DTC C1440, after the vehicle is returned to a normal position.
HINT:
DTC C1440 and the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) DTC are stored when the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) determines that the vehicle is being driven at a steep bank angle and either of the following conditions is met:
- The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) is installed at an angle.
- The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag sensor assembly) signal output is stuck.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
1. DESCRIPTION
The 4 wheel drive control ECU records DTCs when the ECU detects a malfunction
in the ECU itself or in system circuits.
The DTCs can be read through the DLC3 of the vehicle. When the system seems to
be malfunctioning, use the Techstream to check for malfunctions ...
Pressure Sensor Circuit (B1423)
DESCRIPTION
This DTC is stored if refrigerant pressure on the high pressure side is extremely
low (176 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm2, 26 psi) or less) or extremely high (3140 kPa (32.0 kgf/cm2,
455 psi) or more). The air conditioner pressure sensor, which is installed on the
pipe on the high pressure side ...
