Step 1: Customer Complaint Analysis
Record details of the problem (failure, co mplaint) and how it occurred as described by the customer. For this purpose, 
use of such an inspection form will fac ilitate collecting information to the point required  for proper analysis and 
diagnosis. Check if the problem described in “Customer ques tionnaire” occurs actually in the vehicle if necessary.
(This step should be performed with the customer if possible.) Customer problem inspection form (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, check DTC, referring to “DTC Check”. If DTC is 
indicated, print it or write them down and then clear them 
by referring to “DTC Clearance”. DTC indicates 
malfunction that occurred in the system but does not 
indicate whether it exists now  or it occurred in the past 
and the normal condition has been restored now. To 
check which case applies, check the symptom in 
question according to Step 5 and recheck DTC 
according to Step 6 and 7.
Attempt to diagnose a trouble based on DTC in this step 
only or failure to  clear the DTC in this step will lead to 
incorrect diagnosis, trouble diagnosis of a normal circuit 
or difficulty in troubleshooting.
Step 3 and 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 “S tep 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 CheckS7RS0B6304002
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position (without engine 
running) and chec k 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 if the “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 CheckS7RS0B6304003
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.

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 “Serial Data Link 
Circuit Check”.
• 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.
