INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

  • If the power steering ECU assembly has been replaced with a new one, perform assist map writing and torque sensor zero point calibration Click here.

  • If the electric power steering column sub-assembly has been replaced with a new one, perform torque sensor zero point calibration after performing the initialization of the torque sensor zero point value Click here.

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION

    1. Check the connection condition of the torque sensor connector.

      OK
      Torque sensor connector is securely connected to the power steering ECU assembly.
    NG
    OK
  2. CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQV VOLTAGE)

    1. Start the engine.

      A011SVSE04
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      z16-8 (TRQV) - Body ground Engine running 4.5 to 5.5 V
      Text in Illustration
      *a

      Component with harness connected

      (Power Steering ECU Assembly)

    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQ1, TRQ2 VOLTAGE)

    1. Start the engine.

      A011SVSE05
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition (Steering Wheel Position) Specified Condition
      z16-9 (TRQ1) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Center position)

      2.3 to 2.7 V
      z16-1 (TRQ2) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Center position)

      2.3 to 2.7 V
      z16-9 (TRQ1) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Turned to right)

      2.5 to 3.8 V
      z16-1 (TRQ2) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Turned to right)

      1.2 to 2.5 V
      z16-9 (TRQ1) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Turned to left)

      1.2 to 2.5 V
      z16-1 (TRQ2) - Body ground

      Engine running

      (Turned to left)

      2.5 to 3.8 V
    3. Under each condition, measure the voltage at terminals TRQ1 and TRQ2, and calculate the sum.

      Standard Voltage
      Inspection Item Condition (Steering Wheel Position) Specified Condition
      Sum of voltage between z16-9 (TRQ1) and body ground and voltage between z16-1 (TRQ2) and body ground

      Engine running

      Steering wheel not being turned (without load)

      Between 4.75 V and 5.25 V

      Engine running

      Steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped

      Engine running

      Steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped
