EPS indicator does not go off, and no DTCs are stored

  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Check the No. B11 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box.

    Is the fuse blown? 

    YES  - Replace the fuse. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then turn it to LOCK (0) again. If the fuse blows again, repair the short to ground on the No. B11 (7.5 A) fuse circuit.

    NO  - Reinstall the checked fuse, then go to  3.

  3. Check the No. A2 (70 A) fuse in the battery terminal fuse box.

    Is the fuse blown? 

    YES  - Replace the fuse. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then turn it to LOCK (0) again. If the fuse blows again, repair the short to ground on the No. A2 (70 A) fuse circuit.

    NO  - Reinstall the checked fuse, then go to  4.

  4. Do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function.

    Is the gauge control module OK? 

    YES  - Go to  5.

    NO  - Replace the gauge control module (see GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT ).

  5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  6. Disconnect EPS control unit connector A (11P) (see EPS CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
  7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  8. Measure the voltage between EPS control unit connector A (11P) terminal No. 11 and body ground.

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  -Go to step  9.

    NO  -Repair an open in the wire between the EPS control unit and the No. B11 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box.

  9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  10. Measure the voltage between EPS control unit connector A (11P) terminal No. 1 and body ground.

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  - Go to step 11.

    NO  - Repair an open in the wire between the EPS control unit and No. A2 (70 A) fuse in the battery terminal fuse box.

  11. Check for continuity between EPS control unit connector A (11P) terminal No. 2 and body ground.

    Is there continuity? 

    YES  -Go to step  12.

    NO  -Repair an open in the wire between the EPS control unit and the body ground (G402).

  12. Disconnect the gauge control module 32P connector (see step 3 on GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT ).
  13. Check for continuity between EPS control unit connector A (11P) terminals and gauge control module 32P connector terminals (see table).

    Is there continuity? 

    YES  -Check for loose terminals in the EPS control unit connectors, and repair if necessary. If no poor connections are found, replace the EPS control unit (see EPS CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ).

    NO  -Repair an open in the wire between the EPS control unit and the gauge control module.
