VARIABLE GEAR RATIO STEERING SYSTEM FREEZE FRAME DATA

Tech Tips

The VGRS system stores data when a trouble code is set and can be viewed using the intelligent tester.


  1. FREEZE FRAME DATA OF STEERING CONTROL ECU


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the intelligent tester on.

    3. Select "Freeze Frame Data" from the display on the tester.
