CAUTION: On vehicles with ASC, if the steering angle is adjusted, always carry out steering wheel sensor calibration (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION ). This is necessary because the TCL/ASC-ECU should update the steering neutral point.
  1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge and measure the steering angle.

    Standard value:
