Diagnosis Procedure

  1. CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR MOUNTING CONDITION

    Check steering angle sensor mounting condition. Refer to "EXPLODED VIEW ".

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: GO TO 2.

    NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  2. CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR POWER SUPPLY
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect steering angle sensor harness connector.
    3. Check voltage between steering angle sensor harness connector and ground.

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES: GO TO 5.

      NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  5. CHECK TERMINAL
    • Check steering angle sensor pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.
    • Check fuse block (J/B) pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES: GO TO 6.

      NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  6. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION LINE

    Check "STRG BRANCH LINE CIRCUIT". Refer to "DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE ".

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: Replace ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Refer to "REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ".

    NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts. Refer to "PRECAUTION FOR HARNESS REPAIR ".
