Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition G21-5 (IG) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V G21-6 (BAT) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G21-2 (ESS) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Steering Angle Sensor) - Check that the steering angle sensor connector is not deformed or corroded.
OK
No deformation or corrosion.
HINT:
If the steering angle sensor connector is defective, replace the spiral cable sub-assembly.
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STEERING ANGLE)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Chassis / Air suspension / Data List.AIR SUSPENSION
