Toyota CH-R Service Manual: Torque Sensor1 (C1511-C1514,C1517)

Toyota CH-R Service Manual / Power Assist Systems / Power Steering System / Torque Sensor1 (C1511-C1514,C1517)

DESCRIPTION

The torque sensor converts the rotational torque received from the steering wheel into electric signals and sends them to the power steering ECU assembly.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION

(a) Check the connection condition of the torque sensor connector.

OK:

Torque sensor connector is securely connected to the power steering ECU assembly.

CONNECT CONNECTOR

2.	CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQV VOLTAGE)

(a) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

*a	Component with harness connected (Power Steering ECU Assembly)

(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
z3-7 (TRQV1) - z3-8 (TRQG1)	Ignition switch ON	4.5 to 5.5 V
z3-3 (TRQV2) - z3-2 (TRQG2)	Ignition switch ON	4.5 to 5.5 V

REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY

3.	CHECK POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY (TRQ1, TRQ2 VOLTAGE)

(a) Turn the engine running.

*a	Component with harness connected (Power Steering ECU Assembly)

(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
z3-9 (TRQ1) - z3-8 (TRQG1)	Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load)	2.3 to 2.7 V
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped	2.5 to 3.8 V
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped	1.2 to 2.5 V
z3-1 (TRQ2) - z3-2 (TRQG2)	Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load)	2.3 to 2.7 V
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped	1.2 to 2.5 V
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped	2.5 to 3.8 V

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
Sum of voltage between z3-9 (TRQ1) and z3-8 (TRQG1) and voltage between z3-1 (TRQ2) and z3-2 (TRQG2)	Engine running and steering wheel not being turned (without load)	Between 4.75 V and 5.25 V
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the right with vehicle stopped
	Engine running and steering wheel being turned to the left with vehicle stopped
