Calibration [03/2019 - ]

  1. ROTATION ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION AND TORQUE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION (USING TECHSTREAM) 
    NOTE:

    Perform rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration if any of the following conditions occur:

    • The power steering ECU assembly has been replaced.
    • The power steering link assembly has been replaced.
    • There is a difference in steering effort between turning left and right.
    1. Perform inspection before calibration.
      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. Calibrate the power steering ECU assembly. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Data List.
      6. Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.

        Chassis > EMPS > Data List 

        Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
        IG Power Supply IG power source voltage Min.: 0.0000 V
        Max.: 20.1531 V        		 8 to 16 V Engine switch on (IG)

        Chassis > EMPS > Data List 

        Tester Display
        IG Power Supply

        Standard Voltage

        8 to 16 V

        NOTE:

        If the IG power supply voltage is 8 V or less, calibration cannot be performed. In this case, charge or replace the battery, and then perform calibration.

    2. Perform rotation angle sensor initialization and torque sensor zero point calibration.
      NOTE:
      • If DTC C1516 (Torque Sensor Zero Point Adjustment Incomplete) is stored, the torque sensor zero point cannot be calibrated. Clear the DTCs before starting calibration.
      • If DTC C1526 (Rotation Angle Sensor Initialization Incomplete) is stored, the rotation angle sensor cannot be initialized. Clear the DTCs before starting initialization.
      1. Align the front wheels straight ahead and center the steering wheel.
      2. Turn the engine switch off.
      3. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
      4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
      5. Turn the Techstream on.
      6. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Utility / Torque Sensor Adjustment.

        Chassis > EMPS > Utility 

        Tester Display
        Torque Sensor Adjustment
        NOTE:
        • Do not turn the steering wheel sharply.
        • During the torque sensor zero point calibration the steering wheel will shudder. Do not touch the steering wheel until at least 3 seconds have elapsed after the shuddering has stopped.
      7. Check for DTCs.

        Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [03/2019 - ] 

        Chassis > EMPS > Trouble Codes 

        NOTE:

        If DTC C1515, C1516, C1525, C1526, C1534 or C1581 is output, perform troubleshooting for the corresponding DTC.

  2. ASSIST MAP WRITING (USING TECHSTREAM) 
    NOTE:

    Perform assist map writing if the following condition occurs:

    The power steering ECU assembly has been replaced.

    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.
