DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when the angle of the blind spot monitor sensor LH deviates more than the allowable range from the horizontal axis.

HINT:

If drum tester such as a speedometer tester, brake/speedometer combination tester or chassis dynamometer is used with the blind spot monitor main switch assembly (warning canceling switch assembly) on, the blind spot monitor system may store this DTC by mistake.

DTC Code	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
