INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
(a) Using a Techstream, check for DTCs and confirm that there are no problems in the CAN communication system.
OK:
DTCs are not output.
NG -- GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (IG POWER SUPPLY)
(a) Connect a Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Data List.
(e) Select the item "IG Power Supply" in the Data List and read the value displayed on the Techstream.

EMPS:

OK:
The normal condition value is displayed on the Techstream.
HINT: If the voltage is not standard value, inspect the IG power source circuit C1551.

NG -- INSPECT IG POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER STEERING ECU - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)

(a) Disconnect the connectors from the power steering ECU.
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU
(a) Replace the power steering ECU Removal.
NOTICE: After replacing the power steering ECU, perform the torque sensor zero point calibration Programming and Relearning.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.
5. CHECK PS WARNING LIGHT (COMBINATION METER)
(a) Check that the PS warning light comes on for 3 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON.
OK:
The PS warning light operates normally.
NG -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER
OK -- END
