PID/Data Monitor Table

-: Not applicable

Monitor item Unit/Operation Test condition Specification (Reference) Inspection item
ECU_IN_TMP °C, °F This PID indicates temperature of board in EPS control module.
  • Replace the EPS control module.

(See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
ENG_RPM RPM This PID indicates engine speed.
  • Inspect the PCM.

(See PCM INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0] .)
MT_CURRENT A When not steered Near 0 A
  • Replace the EPS control module.

(See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Steered left Changes to 0 A-positive
Steered right Changes to 0 A-negative
OH_CR_C Yes/No Overheat protection control (complete) is operating Yes -
Overheat protection control (complete) is not operating No
OH_CR_M Yes/No Overheat protection control (middle) is operating Yes -
Overheat protection control (middle) is not operating No
OH_HIST_C Yes/No Before overheat protection control (complete) has operated Yes -
Before overheat protection control (complete) has not operated No
OH_HIST_M Yes/No Before overheat protection control (middle) has operated Yes -
Before overheat protection control (middle) has not operated No
OH_IG_CNT_C - The number of times the ignition is switched ON during the period from when overheat protection control (complete) is finished to the time the next overheat protection control (complete) is started
  • Displays a maximum number of 255 times in which the ignition is switched ON until the first overheat protection control (complete) is started.
  • During overheat protection control (complete), the number of times the ignition is switched ON is not counted, and 0 is displayed.

OH_IG_CNT_M - The number of times the ignition is switched ON during the period from when overheat protection control (middle) is finished to the time the next overheat protection control (middle) is started
  • Displays a maximum number of 255 times in which the ignition is switched ON until the first overheat protection control (middle) is started.
  • During overheat protection control (middle), the number of times the ignition is switched ON is not counted, and 0 is displayed.

STR_AB_EST ° Steering wheel position when vehicle wheels straight-ahead 0 °
  • Perform the DTC inspection for the PCM, DSC HU/CM, and EPS control module. If a DTC is displayed after performing the DTC inspection for the PCM, DSC HU/CM, and EPS control module, repair the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

    (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0)] .)

    (See DTC INSPECTION [DSC HU/CM] .)

    (See DTC INSPECTION .)

  • After performing the DTC inspection, perform the following procedures:
    • Switch the ignition off and maintain condition for approx. 3 s  .
    • Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
    • Set the vehicle wheels straight-ahead, then drive the vehicle straight at 20 km/h {12 mph} or more for 5 s or more.
      • Using the M-MDS, verify the STR_ANG_EST operation condition.
    • If an abnormal value is indicated after verifying the value of the STR_AB_EST ANG again, replace the EPS control module.

      (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Steered left Changes to 0 °-positive
Steered right Changes to 0 °-negative
NOTE:
  • The monitor item STR_AB_EST indicates steering angle (estimated absolute angle).
STR_ANG ° Steering wheel position when ignition is switched ON (engine off or on) 0 °
  • Perform the DTC inspection for the PCM, DSC HU/CM, and EPS control module. If a DTC is displayed after performing the DTC inspection for the PCM, DSC HU/CM, and EPS control module, repair the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

    (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0)] .)

    (See DTC INSPECTION [DSC HU/CM] .)

    (See DTC INSPECTION .)

  • After performing the DTC inspection, perform the following procedures:
    • Switch the ignition off and maintain condition for approx. 3 s  .
    • Set the vehicle wheels straight-ahead.
    • Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
    • Using the M-MDS, verify the STR_ANG operation condition.
  • If an abnormal value is indicated after verifying the value of the STR_ANG again, replace the EPS control module.

    (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Steered left Changes to 0 °-positive
Steered right Changes to 0 °-negative
NOTE:
  • The monitor item STR_ANG indicates steering angle (relative angle).
  • The monitor item STR_ANG indicates the steering position when the ignition is switched ON as 0 °. Therefore, the steering position when the ignition is switched ON while the steering wheel is being operated is indicated as 0 °. In this case, 0 ° is not indicated even if the steering position is in the straight-ahead position.
  • To indicate monitor item STR_ANG as 0 ° when the steering position is in the straight-ahead position, perform the following procedure.
    1. Set the steering wheel in the straight-ahead position.
    2. Switch the ignition OFF (LOCK) and hold for approx. 2 min.
    3. Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
    • If monitor item STR_ANG is not indicated as 0 °, perform the following procedure.
      1. Set the steering wheel in the straight-ahead position.
      2. Switch the ignition OFF (LOCK) and hold for approx. 10-30 min.
      3. Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
