4. If tooth contact is improperly adjusted, follow the procedure
below to adjust the pinion height [dimension (X)].
 If the tooth contact is near the face (face contact), or near theheel (heel contact), thicken pinion height adjusting washers to
move drive pinion closer to drive gear.
For selecting adjusting washer, refer to the latest parts infor-
mation.
 If the tooth contact is near the flank (flank contact), or near the toe (toe contact), thin pinion height adjusting washers to move
drive pinion farther from drive gear.
For selecting adjusting washer, refer to the latest parts infor-
mation.
BACKLASH
Before inspection and adjustment, drain gear oil.
1. Remove rear cover. Refer to DLN-204, "
Disassembly".
2. Fit a dial indicator to the drive gear face to measure the back- lash.
 If the backlash is outside of the specified value, change thethickness of side bearing adjusting washer.

Backlash : Refer to DLN-222, "Back-
lash".
When the backlash is large: Make drive gear back side adjusting washer thicker,
and drive gear tooth side adjusting washer thinner by
the same amount. For selectin g adjusting washer, re-
fer to the latest parts information.

APPLICATION ITEM
WORK SUPPORT
*: Adjusts the steering angle sensor neutral position on ABS actuator and electrical unit (control unit) side. Refer to
BRC-64, "Work Pro-
cedure".
DATA MONITOR
*: The swivel angle "0°" (feedback value) of the swivel position sensor signal may differ from the swivel angle "0 °" of the swivel motor
(AFS control unit command value). This causes that the swivel motor initializes the value based on the step number from the sto pper.
ACTIVE TEST
Diagnostic mode Description
Ecu Identification Allows confirmation of AFS control unit part number.
Self Diagnostic Result Displays the diagnosis results judged by AFS control unit.
Work support Sets each sensor.
Data monitor Indicates AFS control unit input data in real time.
Active test Provides the drive signal to the load. Checks operation.

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
If “CAN NOT BE TESTED” is indi
cated, AFS control unit detects that the height sensor signal
changes. The levelizer adjustment is cancelled. In this case, turn the ignition switch OFF to pre-
vent the vehicle from the height change. Perform the levelizer adjustment again.
Is the levelizer adjustment completed?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Perform the levelizer adjustment again.
3.SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULT CHECK
Perform self-diagnosis with CONSULT-III. Check that any DTC is not detected.
Is any DTC detected?

1. Place the screen. NOTE:
 Stop the vehicle facing the wall.
 Place the board on a plain road vertically.
2. Face the vehicle with the screen. Maintain 10 m (32.8 ft) between the headlamp center and the screen.
3. Start the engine. Turn the headlamp (LO) ON. NOTE:
Shut off the headlamp light with the board to prevent from illuminating the adjustment screen.
CAUTION:
Never cover the lens surface with a tape etc. The lens is made of resin.
4. Measure the distance (X) between the horizontal cent er line of headlamp (H) and the cutoff line (A) within
the light axis measurement range (R) from the vertical center line ahead of headlamp (V).
Low beam distribution on the screen
5. Adjust the cutoff line height (X) with the aiming adjus tment screw so as to enter in the adjustment range
(M–N) according to the horizontal center line of headlamp (H).

PREPARATION BEFORE ADJUSTING
NOTE:
 For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
 Perform aiming if the vehicle front body has been repaired and/or the headlamp assembly has been
replaced.
Before performing aiming adjustm ent, check the following.  Adjust the tire pressure to the specification.
 Fill with fuel, engine coolant and each oil.
 Maintain the unloaded vehicle condition. (Remove luggage from the passenger compartment and the trunk
room.)
NOTE:
Do not remove the temporary tire, jack and on-vehicle tool.
 Wipe out dirt on the headlamp. CAUTION:
Never use organic solvent (thinner, gasoline etc.)
 Ride alone on the driver seat.
AIMING ADJUSTMENT SCREW
 Turn the aiming adjusting screw for adjustment.
 For the position and direction of the adjusting screw, refer to the figure.
NOTE:
A screwdriver or hexagonal wrench [6 mm (0.24 in)] can be used
for adjustment.
Aiming Adjustment ProcedureINFOID:0000000006213993
1. Place the screen. NOTE:
 Stop the vehicle facing the wall.
 Place the board on a plain road vertically.
2. Face the vehicle with the screen. Maintain 10 m (32.8 ft) between the front fog lamp center and the
screen.
3. Start the engine. Turn the front fog lamp ON. NOTE:
Shut off the headlamp light with the board to pr event from illuminating the adjustment screen.
CAUTION:
Never cover the lens surface with a tape etc. The lens is made of resin.
