STEERING SYSTEM
PRECAUTION
1. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON STEERING SYSTEM
(a) Be careful to replace the parts properly because they could affect the performance of the steering sys-
tem and result in a driving hazard.
2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON SRS AIRBAG SYSTEM
(a) The vehicle is equipped with SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) such as \
the driver airbag and front passenger airbag. Failure to carry out service operation in the correct sequence \
could cause the SRS
to unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to a serious acc\
ident. Before servicing (in-
cluding removal or installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure \
to read the precautionary
notices in the supplemental restraint system (See page 60±1).
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON STEERING COLUMN
(a) Do not give an impact to the steering column assy, especially the motor and the torque sensor. If a great impact is given (dropping it to the floor, etc.), replace it with a new one.
(b) When removing the steering column assy, do not pull the harness.
(c) When having replaced the steering column assy and/or the ECU, calibrate the \
zero point of the steer- ing torque sensor.
(d) In the case of disconnecting a connector related to the power steering sys\
tem, turn the ignition switch ON, set the steering wheel in the straight±ahead position and turn th\
e ignition switch OFF before dis-
connecting the connector.
(e) In the case of connecting a connector related to the power steering system, make sure that the ignit\
ion switch is OFF at first. After connecting the connector, set the steering wheel assy in the straight±ahead
position, and then turn the ignition switch ON.
NOTICE:
Never turn on the ignition switch when the steering wheel assy is set in orde\
r than the straight±ahead
position.
(f) If the above operation is not done, the zero point of the steering torque \
sensor is shifted away from the proper position, making difference in the steering effort between right and left. If this happens, per-
form the zero point calibration of the steering torque sensor (See page 05±1042).

ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONER PRESSURE SENSOR
(a) Disconnect the pressure SW connector.
(b)Install the manifold gauge set (See page 55±38).
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead from the three 1.5 V dry cell
batteries to terminal 3 and negative (±) lead to terminal 1.
(d) Check the voltage between terminals 2 and 1 of pressure sensor.
Standard:
The voltage varies with on the refrigerant pressure as
shown in the chart.
2. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL ASSY
(a) Disconnect the connector from air conditioning control assy and inspect the connec\
tor on wire harness side, as shown in the table.

If circuit is not as specified, try replacing the air conditioning control\
assy with a new one. If the circuit is not
as specified, inspect the circuits connected to the other parts.
