INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

If the steering column assembly or power steering ECU has 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
    OK
  2. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MOTOR ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR)


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the power switch on (READY).

    4. Turn the intelligent tester 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 intelligent tester.

      Motor Rotation Angle

      Motor rotation angle/

      Min.: 0 deg

      Max.: 1441.77 deg

      During steering operation, motor rotation angle value changes from 0 to 360° Power switch on (READY) and power steering in operation
      OK
      During steering operation, motor rotation angle value changes from 0 to 360°.

    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY

      (to Motor Rotation Angle Sensor)

      Disconnect the connector from the motor rotation angle sensor.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      h2-6 (RZSN) - h2-3 (RZG) Always 75.2 to 112.8 Ω
      h2-1 (RZV) - h2-3 (RZG) Always 27.6 to 41.4 Ω
      h2-5 (RZCS) - h2-3 (RZG) Always 73.2 to 110.8 Ω

    NG
    OK
