Steering Angle Check

CAUTION: After adjusting the steering angle, always perform calibration to make ASC-ECU learn the neutral position of the steering wheel sensor (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION ) < Vehicles with ASC >.

Check that the wheel alignment is normal. (Refer to FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT

Place the front wheel onto the turning radius gauge, and measure the steering angle.

WHEEL STANDARD VALUE REFERENCE

Inner wheel	40°50' ± 1°30' (Difference between right and left wheels must be 2°00' or less)
Outer wheel (reference value)	33°50'

If the measured value is not within the standard value, adjust the tie-rod ends (right and left), and repeat Steps 1 and 2.
If the measured value is not within the standard value after performing Step 3, replace the steering gear and linkage assembly. (Refer to POWER STEERING GEAR BOX AND LINKAGE .)
