Power Steering System (For Hatchback) -- Fail-Safe Chart


When a problem occurs in the electronic power steering system, the EPS warning light on the combination meter comes on, and the ECU stops the steering power assist, maintains the amount of power assist constant, or reduces the amount of power assist to protect the system.

HINT:
The amount of power assist may be decreased to prevent the motor and ECUs from overheating if the steering wheel is continuously turned when the vehicle is either stopped or driven at a low speed, or if the steering wheel is kept at either full lock position for a long time. In such cases, the amount of power assist returns to normal if the steering wheel is not turned for approximately 10 minutes with the engine idling.
