1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Turn the steering wheel left and right 90 degrees or
more. Check the STEERING ANGLE in the VSA
DATA LIST with the HDS.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this
time. Check for loose terminals between the
steering angle sensor 5P connector and the VSA
modulator-control unit 37P connector. Refer to
intermittent failures troubleshooting (see page
19-98).
Go to step 3.
3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
4. Disconnect the steering angle sensor 5P connector.
5. Disconnect the VSA modulator-control unit 37P connector (see step 2 on page 19- 171).6. Check for continuity between body ground and
steering angle sensor 5P connector terminals No. 2
and No. 4 individually.
Repair short to body ground in the wire
between the steering angle sensor and the VSA
modulator-control unit.
Go to step 7.

wheels to the straight ahead position.
2. Turn the steering wheel one turn to the left. Check the STEERING ANGLE in the VSA DATA LIST with
the HDS.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Start the engine.
4. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock several
times.
5. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Replace the VSA modulator-control unit
(see page 19-171).
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this
time. 1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Test-drive the vehicle.
NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
4. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Go to step 5.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this
time. Check for loose terminals between the ECM/
PCM connector A (44P) and the VSA modulator-
control unit 37P connector. Refer to intermittent
failures troubleshooting (see page 19-98).
5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
6. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software (see page 11-227), or substitute a known-
good ECM/PCM (see page 11-7).
7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
8. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
9. Test-drive the vehicle. NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
10. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Replace the VSA modulator-control unit
(see page 19-171).
If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting
is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted,
replace the original ECM/PCM (see page 11-228).

NOTE: Do not damage or drop the combination switch as the steering angle sensor is sensitive to shock and vibration.
1. With the wheels in the straight-ahead position and the steering wheel centered, remove the steering wheel (see page 17-6).
2. Remove the steering column covers (see page 17-9) and the cable reel (see page 24-200).
3. Remove the combination switch assembly (see step 11 on page 17-11).
4. Remove the combination light switch (A) and the wiper/washer switch (B) from the combination switch body assembly (C).
5. Install the combination switch body assembly in the r everse order of removal.
NOTE: Do not remove the steering angle sensor from the combination switch body.
When installing the cable reel, set the turn signal canceling sleeve position so that the arrow points straight up (see page 24-201).
When installing the combination switch, tighten the m ounting screws to the specified torque and sequence
shown (see page 17-12).

NOTE:
Do not damage or drop the sensor as it is sensitive.
Do not use power tools when replacing the sensor.
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
2. Remove the center console (see page 20-92).
3. Remove the yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor (A) mounting bolts.
4. Pull out the yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor, then disconnect the sensor connector (B).
5. Install the yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor in the reverse order of removal.
6. Do the VSA sensor neutral position memorization (see page 19-169). NOTE: Do not press the brake pedal during this
procedure.
1. Park the vehicle on a flat and level surface, with the steering wheel in the straight ahead position.
2. With the ignition switch in LOCK (0), connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) under the
driver’s side of the dashboard.
3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
4. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the VSA modulator-control unit. If it doesn’t
troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11-204).
5. Select VSA ADJUSTMENT with the HDS, and follow the screen prompts.
NOTE: See the HDS Help menu for specific
instructions.
6. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

13. Lower the headliner (A).
–1 Remove the front door opening seals (B) andrear door opening seals (C) from each roof
portion.
–2 With the help of an assistant, detach the rear clips by pulling the rear portion of the
headliner down.
–3 With moonroof: Release the Velcro fastener (D) by lowering the headliner.
–4 With moonroof: Release the hook (E) of the moonroof by moving the headliner rearward.
14. Lower the front of the headliner below the steering wheel. Rotate the liner, and pull it along with the
roof wire harness (F) (without moonroof) out
through the passenger’s front door. Do not bend
the liner. Bending the liner will crease and damage
it. 15. If necessary, remove the cushion tape (A, B)
fastening the roof wire harness (C) to the headliner
(D), then remove them from the headliner.
