      Standard voltage 

      POWER STEERING ECU (PIG TERMINAL)

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      A44-4 (PIG) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 30 to 48 V
      NOTE: If replacing the power steering ECU, initialize the rotation angle sensor value and calibrate the torque sensor zero point (see CALIBRATION  ).

    OK: REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU (See  REMOVAL   ) 

    NG: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CONVERTER - BATTERY AND ECU) 
    1. Disconnect the A47 converter connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
