How an engine works 🚗💯🚀

Make it a habit to drive on a steady RPM around 1.7 to 2.0.

No need to be pressing accelerator up and down every time. Smooth driving saves fuel, keeps your engine calm, and helps your car last longer.

Drive smart, save money, and protect your engine 🔧🚗

A customer came in with her 2019 Toyota Highlander because the traction control light was showing on the instrument cluster 😌.

Trust me, some customers don’t want to see ANY warning light on their dashboard unlike some people that will drive like that for months 😂😂.

As usual, we plugged in our scan tool (the oracle 😌), and the system displayed C1231 – Steering Angle Sensor Circuit Malfunction

Immediately, from experience, we knew the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) was faulty.

But we no dey guess at AUTOPATHS LIMITED 😌

We checked the live data and noticed:

Steering angle not returning to 0° when wheel was straight
Readings were unstable
Zero point calibration could not complete

That confirmed it bad SAS.

So we:

🔧 Disconnected the battery (airbag safety first)
🔧 Removed the steering wheel carefully
🔧 Replaced the faulty Steering Angle Sensor
🔧 Reassembled properly
🔧 Performed Zero Point Calibration with our scanner

And just like that… one hand ✋😌
Traction control light OFF.
System fully restored.
Customer happy.

Moral of the story:
Sometimes it’s just one small sensor disturbing the whole stability system.

Your car air filter is just like your nose mask 😷, once it’s clogged you find it difficult to breathe. Same thing applies to your car air filter , once it’s clogged your vehicle efficiency drops…
