POWER STEERING: POWER STEERING SYSTEM: C1566: Lost Communication with PSOK Signal of DC / DC Converter
C1566 - Lost Communication with PSOK Signal of DC / DC Converter

DESCRIPTION

Base on the WDD signal (power steering converter condition notification signal) from the power steering converter assembly, the power steering ECU performs various processes. Based on the PSOK signal (EPS assist permission signal) from the hybrid vehicle control ECU, the power steering converter supplies a high voltage power supply to the power steering ECU. As a fail-safe function, while the system is malfunctioning, power assistance is limited/stopped.
