  1. CHECK DTC 
    1. Check for DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [09/2014 - ] ).
      RESULT

      Result Proceed to
      DTCs C15C1/74, C15C2/74 and U0126/56 are not output A
      DTCs C15C1/74, C15C2/74 and U0126/56 are output B

    Result:  B

    REPAIR CIRCUITS INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTCS 

    (Refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [09/2014 - ] )

    Result:  A

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT STEERING CONTROL ECU - STEERING SENSOR) 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Disconnect the N158 VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU) connector.
    3. Disconnect the N154 steering sensor connector.
    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N158-5 (SS1-) - N154-9 (SS2-) Always Below 1 Ω
      N158-6 (SS1+) - N154-8 (SS2+) Always Below 1 Ω
      N158-5 (SS1-) - Body ground Always 100 kΩ or higher
      N158-6 (SS1+) - Body ground Always 100 kΩ or higher
      N158-5 (SS1-) - N158-6 (SS1+) Always 1000 kΩ or higher

    Result:  NG

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result:  OK

    OK

    2. Reconnect the N154 steering sensor connector.
    3. Turn the power switch on (READY).
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      HINT: 

      With the connector connected to the VGRS ECU (front steering control ECU), measure the voltage from the rear of the connector.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N158-5 (SS1-) - N158-6 (SS1+) Steering wheel rotated slowly Pulse waveform that alternates between 0 and 5 V is output
