FAIL-SAFE CHART
If a problem occurs in the electric power steering system, the
P/S warning light will come on in the combination meter and
steering power assist will be stopped, fixed at a particular
point, or decreased simultaneously to protect the system.
Electronic power steering system
HINT:
The amount of power assist may be decreased to prevent the
motor and ECUs from overheating if the steering wheel is
continuously turned when the vehicle is either stopped or
driven at a low speed, or if the steering wheel is kept at either
full lock position for a long time. In such cases, the amount of
power assist returns to normal if the steering wheel is not
turned for approximately 10 minutes with the engine idling.

DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
1. READ DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester's DATA LIST allows switch,
sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without
removing any parts. Reading the DATA LIST early in
troubleshooting is one way to save time.
(a) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to the
DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and press the intelligent
tester main switch ON.
(c) Read the DATA LIST by following the directions on
the tester screen.
