To clear the system DTC’s without a scan tool
 With the ignition switch in the OFF position jumper terminals 4 and 12 of the DLC together
 Turn the ignition switch ON with the engine OFF
 Remove the jumper wire from terminal 4 then reconnect it. Repeat this procedure 4 or more times
within 8 seconds
 Verify the normal code flashes. The normal code can be identified by a short flash followed 0.25
seconds later by a longer flash
 Turn off the ignition and remove the jumper wire.
The steering column, motor, torque sensor and the rotation sensor are replaced as an assembly.
As with the other systems, the motor and ECU are protected from overheating if the steering wheel is
held on a steering stop or operated at low speeds for an excessive amount of time. The ECU will reduce
current to the motor to prevent overheating. The current flow can be interrupted for up to 10 minutes to
allow the motor to cool.
