DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Connector check: C-114 electric power steering-ECU connector and C-124 joint connector (CAN3)


caution The strand end of the twist wire should be within 10 cm from the connector. For details refer to .

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between C-114 electric power steering-ECU connector and C-124 joint connector (CAN3)


caution Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair procedure. For details refer to .
Disconnect electric power steering-ECU connector and joint connector (CAN3), and check the following wiring harness for open circuit.
(1)The wiring harness between C-114 electric power steering-ECU connector terminal No.4 and C-124 joint connector (CAN3) terminal No.3 <CAN_H>
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)
(2)The wiring harness between C-114 electric power steering-ECU connector terminal No.3 and C-124 joint connector (CAN3) terminal No.14 <CAN_L>
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q. Is the check result normal?
