- For vehicles with the VGRS system, check that the part number of the installed VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU) is correct. For vehicles without the VGRS system, make sure that a VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU) is not installed.
- CHECK PART NUMBER (STEERING SENSOR)
- Check that the installed steering sensor matches the vehicle specification.
OK
The steering sensor installation matches the vehicle specification.
- Check if the steering sensor had been replaced before the DTC was stored.

Sensor had not been replaced.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPLACE STEERING SENSOR. Refer to REMOVAL [12/2017 - 09/2018]
Result:
OK
See step 4
- Check that the installed steering sensor matches the vehicle specification.
- CHECK BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
- Check that the proper brake actuator assembly is installed.
OK
Proper brake actuator assembly is installed.
- Check if the brake actuator assembly was replaced before the DTC was recorded.
OK
The brake actuator assembly was not replaced.
Result
Result Proceed to OK A NG (A proper brake actuator assembly is not installed.) B NG (The brake actuator assembly was replaced.) C
Result:
B
REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL [12/2017 - 09/2018]
Result:
C
See step 6
Result:
A
See step 5
- Check that the proper brake actuator assembly is installed.
