C1515Torque sensor zero point not set

  • Toyota/Lexus code · Power steering
  • Lights a warning lamp
How the car detects it
The torque sensor has no zero point stored. This is expected after the EPS unit or the steering column was replaced; a workshop sets it with a scan tool, with the wheels straight and the steering wheel untouched. When the power steering limits or stops its assistance, the steering becomes heavy but still works mechanically.
What you may notice
