PROCEDURE
1. | CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION |
(a) Check the connection condition of the torque sensor connector.
OK:
Torque sensor connector is securely connected to the power steering ECU assembly.
NG | ![]() | CONNECT CONNECTOR |
|
2. | CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQV VOLTAGE) |
(a) Turn the engine switch to on (IG). |
|
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
z8-7 (TRQV1) - z8-8 (TRQG1) | Engine switch on (IG) | 4.5 to 5.5 V |
z8-3 (TRQV2) - z8-2 (TRQG2) | Engine switch on (IG) | 4.5 to 5.5 V |
NG | ![]() | REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY |
|
3. | CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQ1, TRQ2 VOLTAGE) |
(a) Start the engine. |
|
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
z8-9 (TRQ1) - z8-8 (TRQG1) | Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load) | 2.3 to 2.7 V |
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped | 2.5 to 3.8 V | |
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped | 1.2 to 2.5 V | |
z8-1 (TRQ2) - z8-2 (TRQG2) | Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load) | 2.3 to 2.7 V |
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped | 1.2 to 2.5 V | |
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped | 2.5 to 3.8 V |
(c) Under each condition, measure the voltage at terminals TRQ1 and TRQ2, and calculate the sum.
Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
Sum of voltage between z8-9 (TRQ1) and z8-8 (TRQG1) and voltage between z8-1 (TRQ2) and z8-2 (TRQG2) | Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load) | Between 4.75 V and 5.25 V |
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped | ||
Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped |
OK | ![]() | REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY |
