For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System :
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SYSTEM COMPONENTS
This power steering (P/S) system consists of a P/S control module, a torque sensor, a motor and clutch installed
to the steering column.
In this system, the P/S control module determines the level and direction of the assist force for the steering
wheel according to the signals from the torque sensor and the vehicle speed, runs the motor so as to assist
operation of the steering wheel.
P/S control module diagnoses troubles which may occur in the area including the following components when
the ignition switch is ON and the engine is running. When P/S control module detects malfunction, it stops the
motor and clutch control.
Torque sensor
Vehicle speed sensor (VSS) circuit
Engine speed signal circuit
Motor
Clutch
P/S control module
NOTE:
The location of steering wheel/column and ECM to RH steering vehicle are opposite to those location
to LH steering vehicle.
