EPS Indicator Does Not Go Off, and No DTCs Are Stored

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Check the No. 11 (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. 11 (7.5 A) fuse circuit.

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

  3. Check the No. 2 (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. 2 (70 A) fuse circuit.

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

  4. Do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function (see SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION ).

    Is the gauge control module OK? 

    YES  - Go to step  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. 1 and body ground.

    Is there continuity? 

    YES  - Go to step 12.

    NO  - Repair open in the wire between the EPS control unit and body ground (G203).

  12. Disconnect the gauge control module 32P connector (see 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).
