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.

Meter Illumination is Always Dark
DESCRIPTION
In this circuit, the combination meter assembly receives auto dimmer signals
from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) using the CAN communication
system (CAN V1 Bus). When the meter CPU receives an auto dimmer signal, it dims
the meter illumination (warning and indicato ...
