    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to  Step 3.
    2. NO:  Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to DIAGNOSIS ). After repairing the CAN bus line, go to Step 2.
  2. STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is stored again. 

    Q: Is DTC No. C123C stored? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 3.
    2. NO:  This diagnosis is complete.
  3. STEP 3. Scan tool (M.U.T.-III) DTC. 

    Check the ASC DTC. (Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING ).

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Perform the relevant troubleshooting.
    2. NO:  Go to Step 4.
  4. STEP 4. Scan tool (M.U.T.-III) other system DTC. 

    Check if the wheel speed sensor-related, or steering wheel sensor-related DTC is stored.

    Q: Is the DTC stored? 

    1. YES:  Perform the relevant troubleshooting.
    2. NO:  Go to Step 5.
  5. STEP 5. Check of hydraulic unit (integrated with G and yaw rate sensor) installation status. 

    Check that the hydraulic unit (integrated with G and yaw rate sensor) is installed correctly (Refer to HYDRAULIC UNIT (INTEGRATED WITH G AND YAW RATE SENSOR) ).

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 6.
    2. NO:  Reinstall the hydraulic unit (integrated with G and yaw rate sensor) correctly. Then go to Step 6.
  6. STEP 6. Scan tool (M.U.T.-III) data list. 

    Check the following data list (Refer to DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLE  ).

    • Item No.22: Yaw rate sensor
    • Item No.23: Lateral G sensor

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 7.
    2. NO:  Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with G and yaw rate sensor) (Refer to HYDRAULIC UNIT (INTEGRATED WITH G AND YAW RATE SENSOR) ). Then go to  Step 11.
  7. STEP 7. Check of steering wheel sensor installation status.

  8. STEP 8. Wheel alignment check. 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  After checking the wheel alignment, calibrate the steering wheel sensor (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION ), and reset the steering wheel sensor correction amount stored in the AWD-ECU (Refer to AWD-ECU  ). Then go to Step 9.
    2. NO:  After adjusting the wheel alignment, calibrate the steering wheel sensor (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION ), and reset the steering wheel sensor correction amount stored in the AWD-ECU (Refer to AWD-ECU  ). Then go to Step 9.
  9. STEP 9. Scan tool (M.U.T.-III) data list. 

    Check the following data list (Refer to DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLE  ).

    • Item No.8: Steering angle sensor

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 10.
    2. NO:  Replace the steering wheel sensor (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR ). Then go to Step 10.
  10. STEP 10. Check whether the DTC is stored again. 

    Q: Is DTC No. C123C stored? 

    1. YES:  Replace the AWD-ECU (Refer to AWD-ECU  ). Then go to Step 11.
