Step 1: Customer Complaint Analysis
Record details of the problem (failure, complaint) and how it occurred as described by the customer. For this purpose,
use of such an inspection form will facilitate collecting information to the point required for proper analysis and
diagnosis. Check if the problem described in “Customer questionnaire” actually occurs in the vehicle if necessary.
(This step should be performed with the customer if possible)
Customer questionnaire (Example)
NOTE
This form is a standard sample. It should be modified according to conditions characteristic of each
market.

Step 2: DTC check, record and clearance
First, referring to “DTC Check”, check DTC (including
pending DTC). If DTC exists, print or write down DTC
and then clear them by referring to “DTC Clearance”.
DTC indicates malfunction in the system but it is not
possible to know from it whether the malfunction is
occurring now or it occurred in the past and normal
condition has been restored. In order to know that, check
symptom in question according to Step 5 and then
recheck DTC according to Step 6 and 7.
Diagnosing a trouble based on the DTC in this step only
or failure to clear the DTC in this step may result in an
faulty diagnosis, trouble diagnosis of a normal circuit or
difficulty in troubleshooting which is otherwise
unnecessary.Step 3 and Step 4: Visual inspection
As a preliminary step, be sure to perform visual check of
the items that support proper function of the P/S system
referring to “Visual Inspection”.
Step 5: Trouble Symptom Confirmation
Based on information obtained in “Step 1: Customer
Complaint Analysis:” and “Step 2: DTC Check, Record
and Clearance:”, confirm trouble symptoms. Also,
reconfirm trouble symptom by performing test drive and
turning steering wheel fully to right and left at stopped
vehicle.
Step 6 and 7: Rechecking and Record of DTC
Refer to “DTC Check” for checking procedure.

Step 8: Steering Symptom Diagnosis and P/S
System Symptom Diagnosis
Perform basic steering system check according to
“Steering Symptom Diagnosis in Section 6A” first. When
the end of the flow has been reached, check the parts of
the system suspected as a possible cause referring to
“P/S System Symptom Diagnosis” and based on
symptoms appearing on the vehicle (symptoms obtained
through steps of customer complaint analysis, trouble
symptom confirmation and/or basic P/S system check)
and repair or replace faulty parts, if any.
Step 9: Troubleshooting for DTC (See each DTC
Diag. Flow)
Based on the DTC indicated in Step 6 or 7 and referring
to the applicable DTC diag. flow, locate the cause of the
trouble, namely in a sensor, switch, wire harness,
connector, actuator, P/S control module or other part and
repair or replace faulty parts.
Step 10: Intermittent Problems Check
Check parts where an intermittent trouble is easy to
occur (e.g., wire harness, connector, etc.), referring to
“Intermittent and Poor Connection Inspection in Section
00” and related circuit of DTC recorded in Step 2.
Step 11: Final Confirmation Test
Confirm that the problem symptom has gone and the P/
S system is free from any abnormal conditions. If what
has been repaired is related to the DTC, clear the DTC
once, perform DTC confirmation procedure and confirm
that no DTC is indicated.
“EPS” Warning Light CheckS6RW0D6304002
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position (but without
running engine) and check if the “EPS” warning light
(1) lights up. If the light dose not light up, go to
““EPS” Warning Light Does Not Come ON with
Ignition Switch Turned ON before Engine Starts” of
the diagnostic flows.
2) Start engine and check that “EPS” warning light turns
OFF. If light remains ON and no DTC is stored in P/S
control module, go to ““EPS” Warning Light Remains
ON Steady after Engine Starts” for troubleshooting.
DTC CheckS6RW0D6304003
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector
(DLC) (1) located on underside of instrument panel
at driver’s seat side.
Special tool
(A): SUZUKI scan tool
3) Start engine.
4) Read DTC according to the instructions displayed on
SUZUKI scan tool. For further details, refer to
operator’s manual for SUZUKI scan tool.
NOTE
• If communication between SUZUKI scan
tool and the vehicle can not be
established, perform “DLC and Its
Communication Check (No communication
to P/S Control Module)”.
• DTC C1122 (engine speed signal failure) is
indicated when ignition switch is at ON
position and engine is not running, but it
means there is nothing abnormal if
indication changes to a normal one when
engine is started.

5) After completing the check, turn ignition switch to
OFF position and disconnect SUZUKI scan tool from
DLC.

Scan Tool DataS6RW0D6304007
NOTE
When P/S motor is cold condition (that is, armature coil of P/S motor is not heated), normal value with
asterisk (*) mark in the following table is displayed on scan tool

Scan Tool Data Definitions
Power Supply Voltage
This parameter indicates battery positive voltage.
Sensor Power Supply (Torque Sensor Power Supply,
V)
This parameter indicates the power supply voltage which
the P/S control module supplies to the torque sensor.
Sensor (Main) Torque (Torque Sensor Main Torque,
N⋅m)
The torque sensor is installed to detect the steering force
and the steering direction. It consists of two
potentiometers and the main torque sensor is one of
these.
Sensor (Sub) Torque (Torque Sensor Sub Torque,
N⋅m)
The torque sensor is installed to detect the steering force
and the steering direction. It consists of two
potentiometers and the sub-torque sensor is one of
these. Its output characteristics are compared with those
of the main torque sensor.Control Torque (N⋅m)
This parameter is an internal parameter of the P/S
control module. It is obtained by computing the torque
sensor input signal.
Target Motor Current (Motor Control Current, A)
Based on the input signal, the P/S control module
determines the assist amount and controls the current to
the motor suitable for that assist amount. This parameter
indicates that control value.
Measured MOT Current (Motor Monitor Current, A)
This parameter indicates the actually measured value of
the current flowing to the motor. The motor circuit
condition is diagnosed by comparing this parameter with
“Motor Control” parameter described previously.
Vehicle Speed (km/h, MPH)
Vehicle speed signal is fed from BCM. P/S control
module determines the amount of power assist based on
this vehicle speed signal and the torque sensor signal.
Engine Speed (rpm)
Engine speed signal is fed from the ECM so that it can
be used for trouble diagnosis of the electric power
steering system. Scan tool data Vehicle condition Normal condition
