Code No. C1707: Implausible coding data



caution
  • If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics Table ).
  • Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
  • When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASTC-ECU) is replaced, always carry out the calibration of the steering wheel sensor and the G and yaw rate sensor (Refer to ).

OPERATION


ASTC-ECU receives the vehicle information stored in the ETACS-ECU via CAN bus lines.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS


ASTC-ECU communicates with ETACS-ECU via CAN bus lines. This diagnosis code is set when the vehicle information received from the ETACS-ECU is invalid.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnosis


Use the M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 3.
Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics Table ). On completion, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Diagnosis code recheck after resetting CAN bus lines


(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3)Erase the diagnosis code.
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(6)Check if the diagnosis code is set.

Q. Is diagnosis code No. C1707 set?

Go to Step 3.
This diagnosis is complete.

STEP 3. M.U.T.-III Diagnosis code of other systems


Check whether a diagnosis code is set in the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A - ETACS, Diagnosis Code Chart ).

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Follow the relevant diagnosis code procedure. Then go to Step 7.
Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. ETACS-ECU coding data check


Using M.U.T.-III, check if any abnormality is present to the coding data which are stored in the ETACS-ECU.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.
Replace ETACS-ECU. (Refer to GROUP 54A - ETACS-ECU .) Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Check part number of ASTC-ECU


Check the part number of ASTC-ECU.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 6.
Replace the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASTC-ECU) (Refer to ). Then go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.


Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3)Erase the diagnosis code.
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(6)Check if the diagnosis code is set.
(7)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q. Is diagnosis code No. C1707 set?

Replace the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASTC-ECU). (Refer to .) Then go to Step 7.
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).

STEP 7. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.


Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3)Erase the diagnosis code.
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(6)Check if the diagnosis code is set.
(7)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q. Is diagnosis code No. C1707 set?

Return to Step 1.
The procedure is complete.
