ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM [ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)]

id0602001009a1


OUTLINE

•  The on-board diagnostic system consists of a malfunction detection system that detects abnormalities in input/output signals when the ignition switch is at the ON position, a data monitor function that reads out specified input/output signals.
•  The data link connector 2 (DLC-2), which groups together all the connectors used for malfunction diagnosis into a single location, has been adopted, thereby improving serviceability. Diagnosis is performed by connecting the Mazda Modular Diagnostic System (M-MDS) to the DLC-2.
•  In addition to DTC read-out, the Mazda Modular Diagnostic System (M-MDS) is used to clear DTCs using the display screen of the diagnostic tester, and to access the PID/data monitor, providing enhanced malfunction diagnosis and improved serviceability.

FUNCTION


Malfunction Detection Function

•  The malfunction detection function detects malfunctions in the input/output signal system of the EPS control module when the ignition switched ON or driving the vehicle.


Malfunction Display Function

•  When the malfunction detection function detects a malfunction, the power steering malfunction indicator light illuminates or flashes to advise the driver. Using the external tester communication function, DTCs can be output to the DLC-2 via the CAN line. At the same time, malfunction detection results are sent to the memory and fail-safe functions.
•  The power steering malfunction indicator light may not illuminate depending on the detected malfunction.


Memory Function

•  The memory function stores DTCs of malfunctions in input/output signal systems. With this function, once a DTC is stored it is not cleared after the ignition switch has been switched OFF, even if the malfunctioning signal system has returned to normal.
•  Since the EPS control module 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.

Status Byte for DTC

•  The status byte is the two-digit code (two digits after hyphen (-)) after the DTC.
ac5wzn00002014
•  The status byte is a code which indicates the pending code, current/past malfunction status, or warning illumination status.
•  The status byte can be read by performing a CMDTC self test using the Mazda Modular Diagnostic System (M-MDS).
•  For details on the status byte, refer to the explanation on the M-MDS when reading the DTC.


DTC 7-digit code definition

•  When related systems or components have failed, the CM stores the DTC of the malfunctioning part in the CM memory, and allows for the retrieval of the store data using scanning tool when necessary. The DTCs are indicated using seven digits. Each digit indicates the following.
ac5wzn00001341


Fail-safe Function

•  When the malfunction detection function determines a malfunction, the power steering malfunction indicator light illuminates to advise the driver. At this time, the fail-safe function disables system control or gradually reduces the assist power.
