Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information EPS-0041

Condition

Location Of Components:

The electrical power steering module (EPS) monitors the internal temperature of the control module.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the electrical power steering module (EPS) calculates that the temperature in the power stage for the control module exceeds 175 °C for more than 100 ms.

Note! If diagnostic trouble code (DTC) EPS-0030 is stored simultaneously with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) EPS-0041, diagnostic trouble code (DTC) EPS-0030 must be remedied first.

The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can be diagnosed when the engine is idling.
