TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS (FOR TROUBLE NOT INDICATED BY ON BOARD DIAG-
NOSTIC SYSTEM)
This section describes trouble diagnosis of P/S system parts whose trouble is not indicated by the on-board
diagnostic system (self-diagnostic function).
When DTC No.12 is indicated by the on-board diagnostic system (self-diagnosis function) and assuredly those
steering basic parts as described in “DIAGNOSIS TABLE” in Section 3 are all in good condition, check the fol-
lowing power steering system parts which may be a possible cause for each symptom of the steering.
Condition Possible Cause Correction
Steering wheel feels
heavy (Perform
STEERING FORCE
INSPECTION before
diagnosis.)Steering wheel installed improperly (twisted) Install steering wheel correctly.
Poor performance of torque sensor Check torque sensor. Refer to
“TORQUE SENSOR”.
Poor performance of motor and clutch Check motor and clutch. Refer to
“MOTOR AND CLUTCH”.
Faulty steering column Replace.
Poor performance of VSS Check VSS. Refer to Section 6E.
Vehicle pulls to one
side during straight
drivingPoor performance of torque sensor Check torque sensor. Refer to
“TORQUE SENSOR”.
Poor recovery from
turnsPoor performance of torque sensor Check torque sensor. Refer to
“TORQUE SENSOR”.
Faulty steering column Replace.

STEERING WHEEL PLAY INSPECTION
Check steering wheel for looseness or rattle by trying to move it in
its shaft direction and lateral direction.
If found defective, repair or replace.
Check steering wheel play, holding vehicle in straight forward con-
dition on the ground and with engine stopped.
If steering wheel play is not within specification, inspect as follows
and replace if found defective.
Tie rod end ball stud for wear
Lower ball joint for wear
Steering shaft joint for wear
Steering pinion or rack gear for wear or breakage
Each part for looseness
Steering wheel play
“a”: 0 - 30 mm (0 - 1.2 in.)
STEERING FORCE INSPECTION
1) Place vehicle on level road and set steering wheel at
straight-ahead position.
2) Check that tire inflation pressure is as specified. (Refer to
“TIRE PLACARD” on vehicle.)
3) Remove driver air bag (inflator) module referring to DRIVER
AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE in Section 3C.
4) Start engine.
5) With engine idling, measure steering force by turning torque
wrench.
Steering force
: Less than 6.4 N·m (0.64 kg·m, 4.6 lb-ft)
6) Install drive air bag (inflator) module referring to DRIVER AIR
BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE in Section 3C.
