Start the engine.

Center the steering wheel.

Using SST, connect terminals 12 (TS) and 4 (CG), and 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.*1

Disconnect SST from terminal 12 (TS) of the DLC3, and turn the steering wheel to the left 180° or more.

Connect SST to terminal 12 (TS) of the DLC3.

Disconnect SST from terminal 13 (TC) of the DLC3, and turn the steering wheel to the right 180° or more.

Connect SST to terminal 13 (TC) of the DLC3.*2

  • HINT:
  • If the master warning light comes on, DTC C1591/51 is stored.

Disconnect SST from the DLC3.

Turn the engine switch off.

6.STEERING CENTER ADJUSTMENT

Center the steering wheel.

  • NOTICE:
  • If the centering of the spiral cable was not confirmed when the steering wheel was installed, confirm the centering of the spiral cable ().
NEXT
7.LOCK STEERING ACTUATOR

Disconnect the positive (+) and negative (-) 12 V battery jumper wires from the steering actuator.

Connect the E80 connector to the steering actuator.

Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

Turn the steering wheel approximately 3° to the left and right. Confirm that the reaction force can be felt.

  • NOTICE:
If the above procedures are not followed correctly, a DTC will be stored. If a DTC is stored, perform the above procedures again and then check for DTCs.
Perform these procedures with the engine switch off.
