POWER ASSIST SYSTEMS: POWER STEERING SYSTEM: C1564,C1565: Lost Communication with WDD Signal of DC / DC Converter


DESCRIPTION

Based on the WDD signal (power steering converter assembly condition notification signal) from the power steering converter assembly, the power steering ECU processes and outputs signals. Based on the ASST signal (EPS demand signal) from the power steering ECU, the power steering converter assembly processes and outputs signals. As a fail-safe function, when the system is malfunctioning, power assistance is limited.
