  1. Disconnect the X3 harness connector at the power steering module assembly.
  2. Connect the EL-47564  test harness Power Steering Control Module (PSCM) Test Harness.
  3. Ignition OFF, test for less than 2 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal E and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, replace the power steering control module.
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, replace the power steering control module.
  5. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal F and the 5V reference circuit terminal B. Verify the scan tool Torque Sensor Signal 1 is greater than 4.8V.
    • If less than the specified value, replace the power steering control module.
  6. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal C and the 5V reference circuit terminal B. Verify the scan tool Torque Sensor Signal 2 is greater than 4.8V.
