See step  2

1. Turn the power switch off.
2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
3. Turn the power switch on (IG).
4. Turn the Techstream on.
5. Display the DTCs on the Techstream screen (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [09/2014 - ] ).
6. Select DTC "C15A3/63", and check the freeze frame data for "Motor Resolver SIN Phase Offset" and "Motor Resolver COS Phase Offset" (Refer to FREEZE FRAME DATA [09/2014 - ] ).
