            HINT:
            1. Refer to the diagnostic trouble code chart if any DTCs are output.
            2. If any CAN communication system DTCs are output, perform troubleshooting on the CAN communication system first (Click here for 4GR-FSE LHD, Click here for 4GR-FSE RHD, Click here for 2AD-FHV LHD, Click here for 2AD-FHV RHD).
            3. If communication to the power steering ECU assembly is not established through the intelligent tester, inspect terminals CANH and CANL of the DLC3 and power steering ECU assembly, and inspect the IG circuit of the power steering ECU assembly.
