Description

Steering angle sensor B signal circuit malfunction

Detection condition

• Start stop unit detects an open circuit or short to ground in steering angle sensor B signal circuit.

Fail-safe

Not applicable

Possible cause

• Steering angle sensor connector or terminal malfunction

• Start stop unit connector or terminal malfunction

• Short to ground in wiring harness between start stop unit terminal 1W and steering angle sensor terminal C

• Open circuit in wiring harness between start stop unit terminal 1W and steering angle sensor terminal C

• Steering angle sensor malfunction

• Start stop unit malfunction

Step

Inspection

Action

1

• Switch the ignition off.

• Disconnect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Disconnect the steering angle sensor connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.

2

• Disconnect the start stop unit connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.

3

• Verify that the steering angle sensor and start stop unit connectors are disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between steering angle sensor terminal C (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between start stop unit terminal 1W and steering angle sensor terminal C.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.

Go to Step 6.

No

Go to the next step.

4

• Verify that the steering angle sensor and start stop unit connectors are disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between start stop unit terminal 1W (wiring harness-side) and steering angle sensor terminal C (wiring harness-side).

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between start stop unit terminal 1W and steering angle sensor terminal C.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 6.

5

• Inspect the steering angle sensor.

  (See STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INSPECTION.)

• Is the steering angle sensor normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the steering angle sensor, then go to the next step.

(See CLOCK SPRING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [STANDARD DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM].)

(See CLOCK SPRING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM].)

6

• Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

• Connect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Clear the DTC for the start stop unit using the M-MDS.

  (See CLEARING DTC [START STOP UNIT].)

• Retrieve the start stop unit DTCs using the M-MDS.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [START STOP UNIT].)

• Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Repeat the inspection from Step 1.

• If the malfunction recurs, replace the start stop unit.

  (See START STOP UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

7

• Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [START STOP UNIT].)

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
