This DTC is stored when the angle of the blind spot monitor sensor LH deviates more than the allowable range from the horizontal axis.
If a drum tester such as a speedometer tester, brake/speedometer combination tester or chassis dynamometer is used with the blind spot monitor system on, the blind spot monitor sensor may store this DTC by mistake.
When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is covering the sensor or its surrounding area on the rear bumper upper cover, the blind spot monitor sensor may store this DTC by mistake.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| C1AC1 | Master Module Horizontal Axis Misalignment | When the blind spot monitor sensor deviates 5.7 degrees or more from the horizontal axis when the system is activated | Blind spot monitor sensor LH |
When checking for DTCs, make sure that the blind spot monitor system is turned on.
If the rear bumper upper cover is damaged or the vehicle has a history of body repair, there is a possibility that the installation area of the blind spot monitor sensor may be deformed and the blind spot monitor sensor system may not operate correctly, so visually inspect the blind spot monitor sensor installation area (frame, stud bolt) to make sure it is not dented or bent.
If the visual inspection finds a problem, check the installation condition of the blind spot monitor sensor, and adjust the installation position of the blind spot monitor sensor as necessary.
Check the condition of the rear bumper upper cover around the blind spot monitor sensors.
When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is covering the sensor or its surrounding area on the rear bumper upper cover, the blind spot monitor sensor may store this DTC by mistake.
