C1288 - Steering Sensor Circuit Malfunction
Hi All,
I have had a problem and not too sure of the severity.... I have a 2001 Auto C5.
Just now going round a corner at about 10MPH, the front right I think locked up. Then the DIC went mad and said SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING and SERVICE CAR SOON
The Active Light Came on and remained until i turned off the engine. After checking the diagnostics the 2 error faults were....
28-TCS
DTC C1287 Steering Sensor Rate Malfunction - H
DTC C1288 Steering Sensor Circuit Malfunction -H
Now both History. Others that are on, but I dont think are relevant are :
B2605 in the SCM (Seat Module)
and 4 in the RFA (Remote Function)
The corvette forum says this in an older post..

"Refers to the steering position sensor. There is a known defect which requires sensor replacement. Call your dealer."
Iv'e been driving it for a bit and so far - fingers crossed - no reoccurance.
Can i leave it to be looked at when it next needs a service (it needs the column lock recall too), or does it need to go now? Does the sensor need cleaning?
Any help would be most appreciated!
