    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [12/2017 - 09/2018]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [09/2018 - 10/2020]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [10/2020 - 11/2021]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [11/2021 - 10/2022]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [10/2022 - 10/2023] 

    Result: 

    See step  4

  4. CHECK FREEZE FRAME DATA (MOTOR RESOLVER SIN PHASE OFFSET, MOTOR RESOLVER COS PHASE OFFSET) 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.
    2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    4. Turn the Techstream on.
    5. Display the DTCs on the Techstream screen.

      Chassis > DRS > Trouble Codes 

    6. Select DTC "C1B13", and check the freeze frame data for "Motor Resolver SIN Phase Offset" and "Motor Resolver COS Phase Offset".

      Refer to FREEZE FRAME DATA [12/2017 - 10/2023]

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      "Motor Resolver SIN Phase Offset" and "Motor Resolver COS Phase Offset" are 5 V or higher A
      "Motor Resolver SIN Phase Offset" and "Motor Resolver COS Phase Offset" are below 5 V B

    Result: 

    REPLACE DRS ECU (REAR STEERING CONTROL ECU). Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2017 - 09/2018]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [09/2018 - 10/2020]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [10/2020 - 10/2022]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [10/2022 - 10/2023] 

    Result: 

    See step  5

  5. INSPECT REAR STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY (MOTOR ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR) 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.
    2. Disconnect the z20 rear steering link assembly connector from the DRS ECU (rear steering control ECU).
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
      STANDARD RESISTANCE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      z20-3 (MRV) - z20-2 (MRG) Always 26 to 64 Ω
      z20-8 (MS1) - z20-2 (MRG) Always 92 to 230 Ω
      z20-7 (MS2) - z20-2 (MRG) Always 98 to 247 Ω
      z20-3 (MRV) - z20-8 (MS1) Always 118 to 294 Ω
      z20-3 (MRV) - z20-7 (MS2) Always 124 to 311 Ω
      z20-8 (MS1) - z20-7 (MS2) Always 190 to 477 Ω
      z20-3 (MRV) - Body ground Always 100 kΩ or higher
      z20-2 (MRG) - Body ground Always 100 kΩ or higher
