      Power steering control unit - Condition Voltage (Approx.)
      Connector Terminal
      M108 1 Ground Vehicle speed: 0 km/h (0 MPH) (Engine is running) 4.4 - 6.6 V
      Vehicle speed: 100 km/h (62 MPH) 2.4 - 3.6 V

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES: GO TO  4.

      NO: GO TO 2.

  2. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN POWER STEERING SOLENOID VALVE AND POWER STEERING CONTROL UNIT
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect power steering solenoid valve harness connector.
    3. Disconnect power steering control unit harness connector.
    4. Check the continuity between power steering solenoid valve harness connector and the power steering control unit harness connector.
