STEERING 15-23
EPS (Electric Power Steering) System
If due to a malfunction, the EPS warning indicator light
(LED) remains lit, try to understand the background of the
trouble before starting the repair work. First ask the rider
about the conditions [A] of the trouble, and then start to ex-
amine the cause [B] of the trouble. Do not rely solely on the
self-diagnosis function, use common sense; for example,
check the connections of the connector.
If the problem is with the following parts, the EPS ECU
can not recognize these problem. Therefore, EPS warning
indicator light (LED) does not light up, and service code is
not indicated.
EPS Warning Indicator Light (LED)
EPS ECU Power Source Wiring and Ground Wiring
Speed Sensor
When the repair has been done, the EPS warning indica-
tor light (LED) lights up immediately after main switch ON,
and goes off after 1 second. This shows that EPS system is
normal. But, service codes detected once by the EPS ECU
will be memorized in the EPS ECU. Therefore, after main-
tenance work ends, be sure to erase the service codes with
service code erase mode. Do not erase the service codes
during troubleshooting. Wait until all the checks and repair
work are finished to prevent duplication of previous service
codes and unnecessary maintenance work. Before eras-
ing the service codes, record them as problem history. The
problem history can be referred when solving unstable trou-
ble.
Even when the EPS system is operating normally, the
EPS warning indicator light (LED) may light up under strong
electrical interference. If the indicator light lights up, turn the
main switch OFF and then erase the service code.
Much of the EPS system troubleshooting work consists of
confirming continuity of the wiring. The EPS system parts
are assembled and adjusted by the manufacturer, so there
is no need to disassemble or repair them. Replace them as
an assembly.
The basic troubleshooting procedures and precautions
are listed below.
Using a fully charged battery. A fully charged battery is a
must for conducting reliable self-diagnosis function.
Measure coil winding resistance when the EPS system
part is cold (at room temperature).
Check wiring and connections from the EPS ECU con-
nector to the suspected faulty EPS s ystem part, using the
hand tester.
