POWER STEERING – ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEMPS–5
PS
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. DESCRIPTION
The EPS (Electronic Power Steering) system generates
torque through the operation of the motor and the
reduction gear installed on the column shaft in order to
assist steering effort.
The power steering ECU determines directions and the
amount of assisting power in accordance with vehicle
speed signals and signals from the torque sensor built
into the steering column assembly. As a result, the power
steering adjusts the steering effort so that it is lighter
during low speed driving and heavier during high speed
driving.
(a) Power steering ECU:
The power steering ECU calculates assisting power
based on steering torque signals from the torque
sensor and vehicle speed signals from the skid
control ECU.
(b) Torque sensor:
The torque sensor detects the steering effort
generated when the steering wheel is turned and
converts it to an electrical signal.
(c) EPS motor:
The EPS motor is activated by the current from the
power steering ECU and generates torque to assist
the steering effort.
(d) Motor rotation angle sensor:
The motor rotation angle sensor consists of the
resolver sensor, which excels in reliability and
durability. The rotation angle sensor detects the
rotation angle of the motor and outputs it to the
power steering ECU. As a result, it ensures efficient
EPS control.

TERMINAL
CAUTION:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the
cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to
prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.

INSTALLATION
HINT:
• Use the same procedures for the RH side and LH side.
• The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
CAUTION:
Be sure to read the precautionary notices concerning the
SRS airbag system before servicing it (see page RS-1).
1. INSTALL SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY LH
(a) Install the sensor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.0 N*m (92 kgf*cm, 82 in.*lbf)
NOTICE:
• If the airbag sensor has been dropped, or
there are any cracks, dents or other defects in
the case, bracket or connector, replace it with
a new one.
• When installing the airbag sensor, be careful
that the SRS wiring does not interfere with
other parts and that it is not pinched between
other parts.
(b) Check that there is no looseness in the installation
parts of the sensor.
(c) Connect the connector.
2. INSTALL CENTER PILLAR GARNISH LOWER LH

SEAT BELT – SEAT BELT WARNING SYSTEMSB–3
SB
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. DRIVER SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
(a) When the driver seat belt is not fastened with the
ignition switch ON, the driver seat belt warning light
on the combination meter comes on to inform the
driver. The center airbag sensor detects the driver
seat belt status and sends signals to the
combination meter through the CAN bus line.
2. PASSENGER SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
(a) for Automatic air conditioning system:
When the passenger seat belt is not fastened with
the ignition switch ON and the passenger seat
occupied, check that the passenger seat belt
warning light on the heater control panel display
blinks. The combination meter detects the
passenger seat belt status and whether the
passenger seat is occupied.
(b) for Manual air conditioning system:
When the passenger seat belt is not fastened with
the ignition switch ON and the passenger seat
occupied, check that the passenger seat belt
warning light on the clock panel blinks. The
combination meter detects the passenger seat belt
status and whether the passenger seat is occupied.

CRUISE CONTROL – CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEMCC–5
CC
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM
This system is controlled by the ECM, and is activated by
the throttle position sensor and motor. The ECM controls
the following functions: ON-OFF, SET / COAST,
RESUME / ACCEL, CANCEL, vehicle speed operation,
motor output control, and overdrive control.
• The ECM compares the driving vehicle speed from
the combination meter with the stored vehicle speed
set through the cruise control switch. The ECM
controls the throttle valve motor of the throttle body to
open the valve when the driving speed is less than the
stored speed.
• The ECM receives signals such as ON-OFF, SET /
COAST, RESUME / ACCEL, and CANCEL from the
cruise control switch.
• The ECM illuminates the combination meter CRUISE
main indicator light when it receives the cruise control
switch ON signal.
• The ECM cancels the cruise control system when the
brake pedal is depressed and the ECM receives the
stop light switch signal.
• The ECM cancels the cruise control system when the
shift lever is moved from D or 3 to a position other
than D or 3, and the ECM receives the PNP switch
signal.
2. LIMIT CONTROL
(a) Low speed limit
The lowest possible limit of the speed setting range
is set at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph). The
cruise control system cannot be set when the
driving vehicle speed is below the low speed limit.
Cruise control operation will be automatically
canceled when the vehicle speed decreases below
the low speed limit 40 km/h (25 mph) while the
cruise control is in operation.
(b) High speed limit
The highest possible limit of the speed setting range
is set at approximately 200 km/h (125 mph). The
cruise control system cannot be set when the
driving vehicle speed is over the high speed limit.
Also, +/RES cannot be used to increase speed
beyond the high speed limit.
