C1516Torque sensor zero point calibration failed

  • Toyota/Lexus code · Power steering
  • Lights a warning lamp
How the car detects it
A zero point calibration of the torque sensor was started but did not finish correctly, often because the steering wheel was touched during the procedure. Repeat it. When the power steering limits or stops its assistance, the steering becomes heavy but still works mechanically.
