Is there no communication with the steering control module?

The MVBs showed no communication with the steering control module or the generator. For the Generator I tried both [19 – CAN Gateway], Group 6 and [01-Engine], location [134] with the same results. Here is the log:

What is the beauty of an electric steering system?

The beauty of electric steering is that all of the steering feedback functions are incorporated into the power steering module, which allows the system to be fine-tuned by reprogramming the module’s software.

How does electric power steering ( EPS ) work?

The EPS control module also receives a vehicle speed input that, in combination with the steering position and torque sensors, combine to produce steering feedback to the driver. The position and torque sensors might also provide an electric input to safety-related systems like the vehicle stability control system (VSC), if so equipped.

Why is my power steering not working properly?

This non-hydraulic failure involves the power steering system’s electrical components. Whenever steering becomes super-stiff, the electric assist mechanism isn’t responding. What to do: if you have a code reader, it’ll point you in the right direction.

What makes up an electric power steering system?

Although configurations might vary, the basic electric steering system consists of the power steering control module, assist motor, torque sensor and steering position sensor. As mentioned above, the torque and steering position sensors might also provide inputs to other systems, including the vehicle stability control system.

Are there any recalls for power steering problems?

For that recall, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigated complaints that certain cars and SUVs suddenly lost power and became harder to control. An independent investigation by Ford concluded that 4 confirmed cases of power steering loss occurred.
