Steering: Testing and Inspection

General Inspection

After or before servicing the EPS system, perform the troubleshooting and test procedure as follows. Compare the system condition with normal condition in the table below and if abnormal symptom is detected, perform necessary remedy and inspection.















ASP: Absolute Steering Position
CAN: Controller Area Network
EMS: Engine Management System

CAUTION:
If there is no EPS warning light illumination, then there is not malfunction of EPS system.
The following symptoms may occur during normal vehicle operation.
- After turning the ignition switch on, the steering wheel becomes stiffer while it performs EPS system diagnostics for about 2 seconds, then it becomes normal steering condition.
- After turning the ignition switch on or off, EPS relay noise may occur but it is normal.
- While steered, when the vehicle is stopped or in low driving speed, motor noise may occur but it is normal operation.

Caution when ASP (Absolute Steering Position) calibration or EPS type recognition
- Check if the battery is fully charged before ASP calibration or EPS type recognition.
- Be careful not to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or scan tool during ASP calibration or EPS type recognition.
- When the ASP calibration or EPS type recognition is completed, turn the ignition switch off and wait for several seconds, then start the engine to confirm normal operation of the vehicle.
