Inspection

Action

1

INSPECT TORQUE SENSOR CONNECTOR AND TORQUE SENSOR WIRING HARNESS
  • Switch the ignition OFF.

  • Disconnect the torque sensor connector.

  • Are the connector connection, connector pins, and wiring harness normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector or wiring harness, then go to the Step 3.

1

INSPECT TORQUE SENSOR USING M-MDS
  • Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.

  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off).

  • Access “STR_TRQ_S_M” and ”STR_TRQ_S_S” PIDs.

    (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS.)

  • Verify that the data monitor value changes when the steering wheel is turned.

    • Left: 0—positive

    • Right: 0— negative

  • Do the torque sensor signal values change in the same way?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the steering column (torque sensor), then go to the next step.

(See STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

3

VERIFY THAT SAME DTC IS NOT PRESENT
