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

Precautions
A/C System CautionS6RW0D7210001
CAUTION!
The A/C system of this vehicle uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant, specified compressor oil and
specified parts.
Do not use CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant, R-12 exclusive use compressor oil and R-12 exclusive parts in
this A/C system, do not attempt to use R-12 servicing equipment. Otherwise, use of it will result in
leakage of refrigerant, damage or other faulty condition of A/C system and damage or other faulty
condition of servicing equipment.
When replenishing or changing refrigerant and compressor oil and when replacing parts, make sure
that the material or the part to be used is appropriate to the A/C installed in the vehicle being serviced.
Use of incorrect one will result in leakage of refrigerant, damage in parts or other faulty condition.

Precautions on Servicing A/C SystemS6RW0D7210002
WARNING!
Should refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) is exposed to your eye(s), consult a doctor immediately.
• Do not reuse your hand to rub affected eye(s). Instead, use fresh cold water to splash it over
affected area to thus gradually raise its temperature above the freezing point.
• Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist. Should liquid
refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) is exposed to your skin, such affected part should be treated in the
same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.

Handling Refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a)
• Always wear goggles to protect your eyes.
• Avoid direct contact to liquid refrigerant.
• Do not heat refrigerant container higher than 40 °C (104 °F).
• Do not discharge refrigerant into atmosphere.
• Do not expose bright metals to liquid refrigerant. Refrigerant combined with moisture is corrosive and tarnishes
surfaces of bright metals including chrome.
• Never use heat for bending pipes. When bending a pipe, try to make its bending angle as smooth as possible.
• Keep internal parts of air conditioning free from moisture and dirt. When disconnecting any line from system, install
a blind plug or cap to the fitting immediately.
• When handling recovery and recycling equipment, be sure to follow the instruction manual for the equipment.
• Check local governmental regulations regarding working with refrigerator systems and its tooling.
• When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.
• Replace O-ring with new one once hoses, pipes and parts disconnected.
• When tightening or loosening a fitting, use two wrenches, one for turning and the other for support.
• Route drain hose so that drained water does not make any contact to vehicle components.
• If pipes or hoses are replaced, replenish specified amount of compressor oil to compressor suction side referring to
“Replenishing Compressor Oil” in “Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charge”.

Refrigerant Recovery
When discharging refrigerant out of A/C system, always recover it by using refrigerant recovery and recycling
equipment because discharging refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) into atmosphere would cause adverse effect to
environments referring to “Recovery” in “Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charge”.
Refrigerant Charge
After performing compressor oil replenishment and evacuation, charge a proper amount of refrigerant to A/C system
referring to “Charge” in “Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charge”.
General Description
Sub-Cool A/C System DescriptionS6RW0D7211001
In the sub-cool A/C system (condenser integrated with receiver / dryer), the inside of the condenser is divided into the
condensation part and the sub-cooler part, and the receiver / dryer is located between those. In the receiver / dryer,
the refrigerant is separated into the vapor refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant. Only the liquid refrigerant is delivered to
the sub-cooler part of the condenser. The refrigerant is supercooled by the sub-cooler part of the condenser.
