INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

If the power steering ECU and steering column assembly have been replaced, perform the rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION


    1. Check the installation condition of the motor rotation angle sensor connector.

      OK
      Motor rotation angle sensor connector is securely connected to the power steering ECU.

    NG

    CONNECT CONNECTOR

    OK

  2. READ VALUE USING GTS (MOTOR ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    4. Turn the GTS on.

    5. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Data List.

    6. Select the item "Motor Rotation Angle" in the Data List and read the value displayed on the GTS.
