Diagnosis with Self-diagnosis (Cont'd)
DIAGNOSTIC ITEM INPUT
1. Move the vehicle one or two meters at a very low speed.
2. Turn the steering wheel more than 20" right-to-left once or
more.
Example: Motor power supply and steering
angle neutral signal are abnormal.

DISPLAY OF SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
The results of self-diagnosis are shown by flash patterns of HlCAS BR
warning lamp.
Display when past data shows that fail-safe function
has been activated previously
Only an abnormal item is indicated by the pattern shown in the ~8 left figure. The pattern is repeated.
Display when past data shows that fail-safe function
has not been activated previously EL
If all items are normal, HlCAS warning lamp flashes at a fre-
quency of
4 Hz. sD
If system is in fail-safe mode, only an abnormal item is indi-
cated by the pattern shown in the left figure. The pattern
is
repeated.

HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
If past record shows that fail-safe function has been activated
previously, use CONSULT, or leave the battery disconnected for
more than
30 minutes to clear the memory.
