EPS Control Unit

EPS system
^ If any malfunction occurs in EPS system, and control unit detects the malfunction, EPS warning lamp turns ON to indicate system malfunction.
^ When EPS warning lamp is ON, vehicle enters a manual steering state (Control turning force steering wheel becomes heavy), fixed at a particular point or decreased simultaneously, to protect the system.

NOTE: While stopping or driving, EPS control unit decreases the output to EPS motor while extremely using the power steering function (e.g., full steering) for protecting EPS motor and EPS control unit (Protect overload status). While activating protect overload status, the assist torque gradually decreases, and the steering wheel turning force becomes heavy. The normal assist torque reactivates by not steering for approximately 10 minutes in READY mode state.
