Component Tests and General Diagnostics
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INSPECTION1. Remove the column cover.
2. Measure the voltage between steering angle sensor terminal B and ground.
^ If there is any malfunction, inspect the wiring harness between steering angle sensor terminal B and battery, then repair or replace if necessary.
Standard voltage
B+
3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, then measure the voltage between steering angle sensor terminal A and ground.
^ If there is any malfunction, inspect the wiring harness between steering angle sensor terminal A and ignition switch, then repair or replace if necessary.
Standard voltage
B+
4. Measure the voltage between steering angle sensor terminal H and the ground.
^ If there is any malfunction, inspect the wiring harness between steering angle sensor terminal H and ground point, then repair or replace if necessary.
Standard voltage
0V
5. Turn the ignition switch off.
6. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
7. Select the SAW_POS PID.
8. Verify the SAW_POS changes when the steering wheel is turned to the left and right.
^ If there is any malfunction, replace the steering angle sensor.
Standard
When the steering wheel is turned to the right:
SAW_POS_POS changes positively.
When the steering wheel is turned to the left:
SAW_POS_POS changes negatively.
