ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM FUNCTION [ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)]
id0602001011a1
Malfunction Detection Function
• The malfunction detection function detects malfunctions in the input/output signal system of the EPS CM when the ignition switch is at the ON position or driving the vehicle.
• When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the EPS warning light illuminates as shown in the diagram to inspect for open circuits in the light.

Malfunction Display Function
• When the malfunction detection function detects a malfunction, the EPS warning light illuminates to advise the driver. Using the external tester communication function, DTCs can be output to the DLC-2 via the CAN communication line. At the same time, malfunction detection results are sent to the memory and fail-safe functions.
Memory Function
• The memory function stores DTCs for malfunctions in input/output signal systems. With this function, once a DTC is stored it is not cleared after the ignition switch has been turned off (LOCK position), even if the malfunctioning signal system has returned to normal.
• Since the EPS CM has a built-in non-volatile memory, DTCs are not cleared even if the battery is removed. Therefore, it is necessary to clear the memory after performing repairs. Refer to the Workshop Manual for the DTC clearing procedure.
Fail-safe Function
• When the malfunction detection function determines a malfunction, the EPS warning light illuminates to advise the driver. At this time, the fail-safe function controls the system as shown in the DTC table.
