POWER STEERING SYSTEM CALIBRATION


  1. ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION AND TORQUE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION (USING GTS)

    Note

    Perform rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration if any of the following conditions occur:


    • The power steering ECU assembly has been replaced.

    • The power steering link assembly has been replaced.

    • There is a difference in steering effort between turning left and right.


    1. Perform inspection before calibration.


      1. Turn the power switch off.

      2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

      3. Turn the power switch on (IG).

      4. Turn the GTS on.

      5. Calibrate the power steering ECU assembly. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Data List.

      6. Check the values by referring to the table below.


        Chassis > EMPS > Data List
        Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
        IG Power Supply IG power source voltage

        IG Power Supply

        Note

        If the IG power supply voltage is 8 V or less, calibration cannot be performed. In this case, charge or replace the auxiliary battery, and then perform calibration.

      7. Perform rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration.

        Note


        • If DTC C1516 (Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Incomplete) is stored, the torque sensor zero point cannot be calibrated. Clear the DTCs before starting calibration.

        • If DTC C1526 (Rotation Angle Sensor Initialization Incomplete) is stored, the rotation angle sensor cannot be initialized. Clear the DTCs before starting initialization.


        1. Set the steering wheel to the center point and align the front wheels straight ahead.

        2. Turn the power switch off.

        3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

        4. Turn the power switch on (IG).

        5. Turn the GTS on.

        6. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Utility / Torque Sensor Adjustment.

    Perform rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration if any of the following conditions occur:


    • The power steering ECU assembly has been replaced.

    • The power steering link assembly has been replaced.

    • There is a difference in steering effort between turning left and right.


    1. Check for DTCs.

        Note


        • If DTC C1516 (Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Incomplete) is stored, the torque sensor zero point cannot be calibrated. Clear the DTCs before starting calibration.

        • If DTC C1526 (Rotation Angle Sensor Initialization Incomplete) is stored, the rotation angle sensor cannot be initialized. Clear the DTCs before starting initialization.

        • If DTCs other than C1516 and C1526 are output, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart.

    2. Perform pre-calibration check.


      1. Turn the power switch off.

      2. Disconnect the A19 power steering ECU assembly connector.

      3. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    (to Power Steering ECU Assembly)

    • Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Note

    If the IG power supply voltage is 8 V or less, calibration cannot be performed. In this case, charge or replace the auxiliary battery, and then perform calibration.

  • Turn the power switch off.

  • Reconnect the A19 power steering ECU assembly connector.

  • Clear sensor calibration value.


    1. Set the steering wheel to the center point and align the front wheels straight ahead.

    2. Turn the power switch off.

    Note

    Connect the terminals to the correct positions to avoid a malfunction.

  • Turn the power switch on (IG) and then connect and disconnect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) at least 20 times in 20 seconds.

  • A01MRTUC04
    *a EPS Warning Light

    Check that the EPS warning light blinks and then remains illuminated.

    Tech Tips

    The EPS warning light illumination indicates that DTCs C1515 and C1525 have been stored.

  • Turn the power switch off.

    Note

    After clearing the sensor calibration value, rotation angle sensor initialization or zero point calibration cannot be performed if the power switch is on (IG).

  • Rotation angle sensor initialization.

    Note

    As rotation angle sensor initialization cannot be performed if DTC C1525 has not been stored, be sure to clear the sensor calibration value and torque sensor zero point calibration before performing rotation angle sensor initialization.


    1. Set the steering wheel to the center point and align the front wheels straight ahead.

    2. Turn the power switch off.

    3. A01MS0CC03
      *a DLC3

      Using SST, connect terminals 12 (TS) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3, and then turn the power switch on (IG).

      SST

      Note

      Connect the terminals properly to avoid a malfunction.

      Tech Tips

      If DTC C1525 is present when test mode starts, the system automatically switches to motor rotation angle sensor output calibration mode.

    4. Turn the steering wheel 45° or more to the left and right.

      Note


      • After turning the power switch on (IG), wait 2.5 seconds or more before turning the steering wheel in order to allow the sensor voltage to stabilize.

      • Do not turn the steering wheel quickly.

  • Perform torque sensor zero point calibration.

    Note

    As torque sensor zero point calibration cannot be performed if DTC C1515 has not been stored, be sure to perform sensor calibration value erasure before performing torque sensor zero point calibration.


    1. Set the steering wheel to the center point and align the front wheels straight ahead.

    2. Turn the power switch off.
