Inspection Procedure

Check self-diagnosis results.

Is the above displayed in the self-diagnosis item? 

YES: GO TO 2.

NO: INSPECTION END

1. Disconnect steering angle sensor connector and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector and check terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness, and so on. If there is an error, repair or replace the terminal.
2. Reconnect the connectors and then preform self-diagnosis.

Is the result of self-diagnosis normal? 

YES: The connector terminal contact is loose, damaged, open or shorted.

NO: GO TO 3.

1. Check CAN communication system. Refer to "CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM ".
2. Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect steering angle sensor connector M22 and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector B114.
3. Check continuity between VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector terminal 2 and steering angle sensor connector terminal 3.

OK or NG 

OK: GO TO 4.

NG: If the open or short in harness, repair or replace the harness.

1. Connect steering angle sensor and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connectors.
2. Conduct "DATA MONITOR" of the "STR ANGLE SIG" to check if the status is normal.

   Steering condition	Data monitor
   Straight-ahead	Approx. 0°
   Turn wheel to the right by 90°	Approx. + 90°
   Turn wheel to the left by 90°	Approx. - 90°

OK or NG 

OK: Re-conduct VDC/TCS/ABS control unit self-diagnosis.

NG: Replace spiral cable (steering angle sensor) and adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor.

Refer to "ADJUSTMENT OF STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION ".
