Diagnostic procedure

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	• Switch the ignition to off and maintain this condition approx. 1 minute. • Switch the ignition ON (engine on). • Perform the DTC inspection. (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)].) • Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)].)
1		No	Go to the next step.
2	• Turn off the EPS warning light at instrument cluster using the “WL+IL” of the M-MDS active command modes function. • Does the EPS warning light turn off?	Yes	EPS CM malfunction. Replace the EPS CM. (See STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2		No	Perform the instrument cluster configuration, then repeat the inspection from Step 1. (See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CONFIGURATION (USING AS-BUILT DATA).) If the malfunction recurs, replace the instrument cluster. (See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
