Initialization
INITIALIZATIONSTEERING ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION
a. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and check that the VGRS and VSC/TRAC warning lights illuminate for a few seconds.
NOTE: If the warning lights remain on or blink, repair the applicable system.
b. Drive the vehicle on a straight road at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for 5 seconds or longer. At this point, the steering wheel will still remain off-center by 5 to 10 degrees.
HINT: In this step, the neutral position of the steering wheel is restored from the VGRS ECU memory.
c. After performing normal cornering 2 to 3 times, the steering wheel position is automatically corrected.
NOTE: If the steering wheel remains off-center after the above procedure, repair the applicable system.
d. Confirm the steering angle sensor initialization is completed.
WHEN USING HAND-HELD TESTER:
Use this procedure to center the steering wheel when the STRAIGHT ANG FLG from the VGRS DATA LIST reads VALID.
WHEN NOT USING HAND-HELD TESTER:
1. Drive the vehicle on a road at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 30 seconds or longer.
HINT: At this time, if steering angle initialization is not completed, VGRS system is stopped.
2. Stop the vehicle. (Engine running)
3. Slowly turn the steering wheel from lock to lock.
HINT: 2 seconds or more for 1 turn.
4. If it rotates approximately 2.4 turns, the steering angle sensor initialization is completed. If it rotates approximately 3.5 turns, the steering angle sensor initialization is not completed.
