When the system enters test mode, "VGRS Test Mode" is displayed on the multi-information display.
Before entering test mode, check and repair any malfunctions indicated by the present DTCs of the VGRS system.
By switching from normal mode to test mode, the steering angle sensor can be read.
When entering test mode, the steering control ECU sets all the test mode DTCs first.
When the mode is switched from test mode to normal mode, all the test mode DTCs will be cleared.

Check the test mode DTCs (using the tester).

Turn the engine switch off.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.

Read the test mode DTCs by following the prompts on the tester screen.

  • HINT:
  • Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.

Clear the test mode DTCs (using the tester).

Turn the engine switch off.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
