C1109 Ignition Voltage Fault - General Information
Component Location
General Description
EPS (MDPS=Motor Driving Power Steering)Control Module receives vehicle speed and engine RPM signal from EMS(Engine Management System) via CAN line and controls motor current accurately according to driver's steering intention. EPS CM(Control Module) monitors that operating voltage supplied as IG S/W is too high or too low on "power supply terminal". If excessive high voltage or low voltage is detected, EPS CM stops current supply to solenoid to prevent unexpected operation or damage.
DTC Description
EPS (MDPS=Motor Driving Power Steering) is designed to operate only at engine "ON" because it's current attrition rate is high. It decides whether engine operates or not from vehicle speed and engine RPM. EPS CM(Control Module) sets this code and turns on warning lamp if IG S/W turns off when engine is operating.
