of parts), be sure to read the precautionary notices for the Supplemental Restraint
System (See page
).

When there are any problems in the CAN communication lines, DTCs of the CAN communication line are output.
(b) Perform troubleshooting for the communication line problems when DTCs of the CAN communication are output. Be sure to start troubleshooting on the power steering system after confirming that the CAN communication system is normal.
