Most Reported On
C1715 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Manufacturer-Specific Chassis Code (Nissan: TPMS Transmitter / wheel-end related).” C1715 is a manufacturer-specific chassis code whose exact meaning varies by maker; on Nissan/Infiniti applications it is generally associated with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) transmitter fault (commonly cited as the rear-left transmitter). Because this code is not part of the standardized SAE set, the precise definition should be confirmed against the specific vehicle's service information. In general it points to a wheel-end sensor/transmitter communication concern. It is typically a comfort/monitoring issue rather than a driving hazard, though it may leave tire-pressure warnings active. This code is most commonly reported on 2007-2017 Lexus LS (LS460, LS460L, LS600h, LS600hL), 2008-2021 Lexus LX (LX570), and 2003-2014 Nissan Murano, with repair costs ranging from $300 to $6,000.
