INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
- When U0073/94, U0100/65, U0123/62, U0124/95 or U0126/63 are output accompanied with C1231/ 31, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by U0073/94, U0100/65, U0123/62, U0124/95 or U0126/63 first.
- When the speed sensor or the yaw rate sensor has trouble. DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be output even when the steering angle sensor is normal. When DTCs for the speed sensor or yaw rate sensor are output accompanied with other DTCs for the steering angle sensor, inspect and repair the speed sensor and yaw rate sensor first, and the n inspect and repair the steering angle sensor.
