DESCRIPTION
The power steering converter assembly steps down the HV battery voltage to approximately 46 V. This voltage is then supplied to the power steering ECU to operate the motors. As a fail-safe function, when the PIG power supply and power steering converter assembly are malfunctioning, power assistance is limited/stopped.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |

PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MOTOR VOLTAGE)
Turn the power switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Data List.
Select the item "Motor Voltage" in the Data List and read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motor Voltage | Power source voltage to active motor/ Min.: 0 V Max.: 98.000 V |
20 to 58 V | The power switch on (READY) and power steering is operating. |
| OK |
