INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY - POWER STEERING MOTOR)


    C110601E05

  1. Disconnect the C4 connector from the power steering ECU assembly.

  1. Disconnect the C1 connector from the power steering motor.

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

    Resistance:
    Tester connection
    (Symbols)
    		Condition
    		Specified condition
    C4-5 (U) - C1-3 (U)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    C4-11 (V) - C1-2 (V)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    C4-6 (W) - C1-1 (W)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    C4-5 (U) - Body ground
    		Always
    		10 kΩ or higher
    C4-11 (V) - Body ground
    		Always
    		10 kΩ or higher
    C4-6 (W) - Body ground
    		Always
    		10 kΩ or higher

2.INSPECT POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY (POWER STEERING MOTOR)


    C110602E05

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

    Resistance:
    Tester connection
    (Symbols)
    		Condition
    		Specified condition
    C1-3 (U) - C1-2 (V)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    C1-2 (V) - C1-1 (W)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    C1-1 (W) - C1-3 (U)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω

    NOTICE:
    1. If replacing the power steering link assembly, clear the rotation angle sensor calibration value, initialize the rotation angle sensor, and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (Click here).
    2. If replacing the power steering ECU assembly, initialize the rotation angle sensor and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (Click here).
    3. 3UZ-FE:
      If replacing the power steering link assembly, perform VGRS actuator angle initialization and VGRS actuator angle neutral calibration after wheel alignment adjustment (Click here for INITIALIZATION, Click here for CALIBRATION).
