WORK SUPPORT (STEERING ANGLE SENSOR ADJUSTMENT)
Work Support Item List
CAUTION:
Never use this function but on VDC side.
Notes on Steering Angle Sensor (Neutral Point) Adjustment
Be sure to adjust steering angle sensor neutral point before driving if any of the following has been
removed/installed or replaced: Steering angle sensor; Steering system part, Suspension system part.
On vehicle with VDC, perform steering angle sensor neutral point adjustment only on VDC side. Never
perform the adjustment on ADAPTIVE LIGHT side as this may lead to VDC malfunctions. If the adjust-
ment has been performed on AFS side, readjust on VDC side. For steering angle sensor neutral point
adjustment procedures on VDC side, refer to BRC-6, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Posi-
tion" in “ON-VEHICLE SERVICE”.
When replaced steering angle sensor, AFS control unit detects “DTC B2515 ST ANG SEN SIG”. Delete
the malfunction history after adjust steering angle sensor on VDC side.
Steering angle sensor neutral point adjustment should be performed using CONSULT-II. (The adjustment
will not be possible without CONSULT-II.)
Operation Procedure
Refer to BRC-6, "Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" in BRC section.
WORK SUPPORT (LEVELIZER ADJUSTMENT)
Work Support Item List
Operation Procedure
1. Set the vehicle in unload condition. (Removal all loads in driver, passenger and trunk rooms.)
2. Touch “ADAPTIVE LIGHT” on “SELECT SYSTEM” screen.
3. Touch “WORK SUPPORT” on “SELECT DIAG MODE” screen.
4. Touch “LEVELIZER ADJUSTMENT”.
5. Touch “START”.
6. “ADJUSTMENT COMPLETE” will be displayed.
CAUTION:
When “CAN NOT BE TESTED” is displayed, AFS control unit stops levelizer adjustment as it
detected the change of height sensor signal. AFS control unit detects “DTC B2519 LEVELIZER
CALIB”.
Turn ignition switch OFF not to change the vehicle height. Then turn ignition switch ON and per-
form levelizer adjustment again.
When “ADJUSTMENT COMPLETE” is displayed, and “NO DTC IS DETECTED” is displayed on
self-diagnosis results, levelizer adjustment is completed.
When “ADJUSTMENT COMPLETE” is displayed, and “B2514 HI SEN UNUSUAL” is displayed on
self-diagnosis results, refer to LT-174, "

1. Start engine and turn lighting switch to 2ND position.
2. Select “ADAPTIVE LIGHT” on CONSULT-II. Select “ACTIVE
TEST” on “SELECT DIAG MODE” screen.
3. Select “LOW BEAM TEST RIGHT” or “LOW BEAM TEST LEFT”
on “SELECT TEST ITEM” screen.
4. Touch “ORIGIN–FAST/SLOW” and “PEAK–FAST/SLOW”
screen.
5. Make sure of swivel operation.

When interference or poor fitment is found, perform aiming adjustment. Refer to LT- 7 4 , "Aiming
Adjustment" . If it is normal, replace headlamp. Refer to LT- 1 9 0 , "Removal and Installation of
Front Combination Lamp" .
When the operation range is irregular, perform aiming adjustment. Refer to LT- 7 4 , "Aiming
Adjustment" . If it is normal, GO TO 3.
2. CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR
Check “STR ANGLE SIG” in “Data Monitor” when driving straight
and steering turn 90
to right or left.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >>
When steering is out of range while driving straight, perform steering angle sensor adjustment.
Refer to BRC-6, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" in “ON-VEHICLE
SERVICE”.
When the function is normal while driving straight but the displayed value is different from
actual steering position with turning to right or left, replace steering angle sensor. Refer to LT-
190, "Removal and Installation of Steering Angle Sensor" .
