SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
Fail-Safe FunctionNGS000DW
When the fail-safe function operate, it controls power steering sole-
noid valve by the engine speed as shown in the figure and maintains
the steering force.
FAIL-SAFE INPUT/CANCEL CONDITIONS
CAUTION:
Fail-safe function is activated when the engine runs at 1,500 rpm or higher for 10 seconds with the vehicle stopped. This is
normal and the fail-safe function is automatically deactivated when a vehicle speed signal of 2 km/h (1.2 MPH) or higher is
input or the ignition switch is turned OFF.
SGIA0411E
Input conditions Cancel conditions
When vehicle runs at an engine speed of 1,500 rpm or higher and no vehicle speed signal
is received for 10 seconds.

A vehicle speed of 2 km/h (1.2 MPH) or
more is input.

Turn the ignition switch ON after turn-
ing it OFF. The continuous vehicle speed signal 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more suddenly drops to less
than 2 km/h (1.2 MPH) within 1.4 seconds.

Is the specified part used for the steering wheel?

Is control unit a genuine part?

Are there any fluid leakage from steering gear assembly, power steering oil pump, and hydraulic pipes,
etc? Refer to PS-8, "
Checking Fluid Leakage" .

Is the fluid level proper? Refer to PS-8, "Checking Fluid Level" .

Is the wheel alignment adjusted properly? Refer to FSU-6, "Wheel Alignment Inspection" (2WD), FSU-24,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" (AWD).

Are there any damage or modification to suspension or body resulting in increased weight or altered
ground clearance?

Check each link installation condition of suspension and axle.

Check each connector connection condition.
Check the following items while driving the vehicle

Check conditions when the malfunction occurred (5W 1H).

Basic InspectionNGS000E2
POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT TERMINAL LOOSENESS AND BATTERY
Check battery terminals for looseness on both positive and negative ones and ground connection. Also make
sure that battery voltage does not drop.
Inspection: Power Steering Control Unit Power Supply Circuit and GroundNGS000E3
1. CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL UNIT CONNECTOR
Turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect power steering control unit harness connector, and check terminal for
deformation, disconnection, looseness, etc.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Connector terminal connection is loose, damaged, open, or shorted. Repair or replace the termi-
nal.
2. CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL UNIT GROUND CIRCUIT
Disconnect power steering control unit harness connector M8, and
then check continuity between power steering control unit harness
connector M8 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Ground circuit open or shorted. Repair or replace any
inoperative parts. Terminal 2 – Ground : Continuity exist.
