1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.
NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
4. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 25, 26, or 104 indicated?
YES - Go to step 5.
NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for loose terminals between the sensor cluster 6P connector and the VSA modulator-control unit 47P connector. Refer to intermittent failures troubleshooting. Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview
5. Check the size, air pressure, and the amount of wear of all four tires, and check the wheel alignment. Service and Repair
Is the tire condition and wheel alignment OK?
YES - Go to step 6.
NO - Make sure the suspension is not modified, and adjust the wheel alignment correctly, and recheck by test-driving.

Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 14.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the VSA modulator-control unit and the sensor cluster.
14. Substitute a known-good sensor cluster. Service and Repair
15. Reconnect all connectors.
16. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
17. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
18. Do the VSA sensor neutral position memorization. Programming and Relearning

NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
20. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 25, 26, or 104 indicated?
YES - Check for loose terminals in the VSA modulator-control unit 47P connector. If necessary, substitute a known-good VSA modulator-control unit, Service and Repair and retest.
NO - If any DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTCs troubleshooting If DTC is not indicated, replace the original sensor cluster.. Service and Repair
