On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000001282496
CHECKING CONDITION OF INSTALLATION
 Check installation conditions of steering gear assembly, front suspension assembly, axle and steering col-
umn assembly.
 Check if movement exists when steering wheel is moved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.
 Check steering gear assembly mounting bolts and nuts for looseness. Refer to ST-12, "
Removal and Instal-
lation" .
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
 Turn steering wheel so that front wheels come to the straight-ahead position. Start engine and lightly turn
steering wheel to the left and right until front wheels start to move. Measure steering wheel movement on the
outer circumference.
 When the measurement value is outside the standard value, check backlash for each joint of steering col-
umn assembly and installation condition of steering gear assembly.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION STEERING WHEEL
 Make sure that steering gear assembly, steering column assembly and steering wheel are installed in the
correct position.
 Perform neutral position inspection after wheel alignment. Refer to SR-2, "
Precaution for Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER"" .
 Set vehicle to the straight-ahead position and confirm steering wheel is in the neutral position.
 Loosen outer socket lock nut and turn inner socket to left and right equally to make fine adjustments if steer-
ing wheel is not in the neutral position.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Check steering wheel turning force when steering wheel has
been turned 360° from neutral position using suitable tool as
shown.
4. If steering wheel turning force is out of the specification, refer to
STC-3, "
Work Flow" .
CHECKING FRONT WHEEL TURNING ANGLE
Steering wheel axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
Steering wheel play : 0 - 35 mm (0 - 1.38 in)
Steering wheel
turning force: Less than 36 N (3.7 kg-f, 8.2 lb-f)

11. Set dial gauge to the back of rack assembly on the pinion
assembly side around the center of stroke. Measure displace-
ment of rack under torsional torque of ± 7.8 N·m (0.80 kg-m, 69
in-lb), and then check if it is within the standard value. If the
measurement is outside the standard value, adjust it again. After
the readjustment, if measurement is still outside the standard
value, replace steering gear assembly.
12. Install boot to gear housing assembly and inner socket.
13. Install small diamter boot clamp.
14. Install large diameter boot clamp (1) to boot using Tool.
NOTE:
Install large diameter boot clamp (1) securely to boot groove,
and crimp it so as to have clearance of 3 mm (0.12 in) or less as
shown.
15. Install joint cover (1) to gear housing assembly (2).
CAUTION:
Install joint cover so that the protrusion for locating is
securely set to gear housing groove.
16. Adjust inner socket to standard length “L”, and then tighten lock
nut to the specified torque. Refer to "COMPONENT (R24K
TYPE)". Check length of inner socket “L” again after tightening
lock nut. Make sure that the length is the standard.
CAUTION:
Adjust toe-in. Refer to FSU-17, "
Wheel Alignment
(Unladen*)". Length achieved after toe-in adjustment is not
necessarily the above value.Standard value : Less than 0.1 mm (0.004 in)

C1608 EPS CONTROL UNIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001716745
EPS control unit performs an arithmetical operation on data, such as steering wheel turning force (sensor sig-
nal) from the torque sensor, vehicle speed signal, etc. Then it generates an optimum assist torque to the EPS
motor according to the driving condition.
