Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Toyota Sienna. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK RESISTANCE (CANL - CANH OF DLC3) 
    1. Measure the resistance between the terminal CANL and CANH of the DLC3.
    RESISTANCE

    A 1 MΩ or more
    B 54 to 68 Ω

    1. B: Go to step   3 
    2. A: Go to Next Step 
  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - DLC3) 
    1. Disconnect the junction connector (J17).
    2. Measure the resistance between the terminal CANL of the DLC3 and CANL of the junction connector (J17).

      OK: 

      Resistance: 1 Ω or less 

    3. Measure the resistance between the terminal CANH of the DLC3 and CANH of the junction connector (J17).

      OK: 

      Resistance: 1 Ω or less

    1. OK: Go to step   3 
    2. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR AND GO TO STEP   3 
  3. CHECK RESISTANCE (CANL - CANH OF STEERING ANGLE SENSOR CONNECTOR) 
    1. Disconnect the steering angle sensor connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between the terminals CANL and CANH of the steering angle sensor wire harness side connector.

      OK: 

      Resistance: 108 to 132 Ω

    1. OK: Go to step   5 
    2. NG: Go to next step 
  4. CHECK JUNCTION CONNECTOR (J17) 
    1. Disconnect the junction connector (J17).
    2. Measure the resistance between the terminals 1 and 4 of the junction connector.

      OK: 

      Resistance: 1 Ω or less 

    3. Measure the resistance between the terminals 12 and 15 of the junction connector.

      OK: 

      Resistance: 1 Ω or less

    1. NG: REPLACE JUNCTION CONNECTOR 
    2. OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 
  5. CHECK RESISTANCE (CANL - CANH OF STEERING ANGLE SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between the terminals CANL and CANH of the steering angle sensor.

      OK: 

      Resistance: 108 to 132 Ω

    1. NG: Go to step   6 
    2. OK: IF THE SAME CODE IS STILL OUTPUT AFTER THE DTC IS DELETED, CHECK THE CONTACT CONDITION OF EACH CONNECTION 
  6. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (STEERING ANGLE SENSOR CONNECTOR) 
    1. Disconnect the steering angle sensor connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    3. Measure voltage between terminals 1 and 2, 2 and 3 of the steering angle sensor harness side connector.

      OK: 

      Voltage: 10 to 14 V

    1. OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 
    2. NG: Go to Next Step 
  7. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEERING ANGLE SENSOR - BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the steering angle sensor connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between terminal ESS of the yaw rate sensor connector and body ground.

      OK: 

      Resistance: 1 Ω or less
