DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PRECONDITIONING
If DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and
wait at least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
>> GO TO 2.
2.DTC REPRODUCTION PROCEDURE
With CONSULT
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF to ON.
2. Perform EPS self-diagnosis.
Is DTC
“C1601” detected?
YES >> Proceed to diagnosis procedure. Refer to STC-23, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> Inspection End.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000009460359
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to STC-14, "Wiring Diagram".
1.CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE GROUND CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect power steering control module harness connector.
3. Check continuity between power steering control module harness connector terminal and ground.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors, and repair or
replace the malfunctioning component.
2.CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL MO DULE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT (1)
1. Check voltage between power steering control module harness connector terminals and ground.
2. Turn ignition switch ON. CAUTION:
Never start the engine.
3. Check voltage between power steering control module harness connector terminals and ground.

Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT (2)
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Check the 100A fusible link (D).
3. Disconnect battery terminal with fusible link harness connector.
4. Check continuity between power steering contro l module harness connector terminal and battery terminal
with fusible link harness connector terminal.
5. Check continuity between power steering c ontrol module harness connector terminal and ground.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Perform the trouble diagnosis for battery power supply circuit. Refer to PG-8, "Wiring Diagram —
Battery Power Supply —".
NO >> Repair or replace the malfunctioning component.
4.CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT (3)
1. Check voltage between power steering control module harness connector terminals and ground.
2. Turn ignition switch ON. CAUTION:
Never start the engine.
3. Check voltage between power steering control module harness connector terminals and ground.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> GO TO 5.
5.CHECK POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT (4)
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Check the 10A fuse No. 49 in the IPDM E/R.
3. Disconnect IPDM E/R harness connector E63.
4. Check continuity between power steering control module harness connector terminal and IPDM E/R har-
ness connector terminal.
