FREEZE FRAME DATA
- FREEZE FRAME DATA NOTE: It is difficult to show the specified values (judgment values) clearly because freeze frame data values change significantly due to differences in measurement conditions, surroundings or vehicle conditions. For this reason, there may be a problem even when the values are within specifications. Turn the power switch ON (IG) and park the vehicle on level ground. Check the freeze frame data by using the Techstream. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch ON (IG) and check the freeze frame data by following the prompts the Techstream display screen. Enter the following menus: Chassis / EMPS / Utility / Freeze Frame Data.

FAIL-SAFE CHART
If a problem occurs in the electronic power steering system, the P/S warning light will come on in the combination meter and steering power assistance will be stopped, fixed at a particular point, or decreased simultaneously to protect the system.

HINT
The amount of power assistance may be decreased to prevent the motor and ECUs from overheating if the steering wheel is continuously turned when the vehicle is either stopped or driven at a low speed, or if the steering wheel is kept at either full lock position for a long time. In that case, the amount of power assistance will return to normal if the steering wheel is not turned for approximately 10 minutes with the engine idling.
