POWER – ASSISTED STEERING
Fault finding – Replacement of components
Precautions for use
–The electric motor and upper column (EPAS system) assembly cannot be taken apart.
–Only reuse an EPAS system from one vehicle on another vehicle if the column and computer part numbers match.
A. Replacing the EPAS (computer - top steering column assembly):
Before replacing the EPAS, run fault finding on the system: apply the appropriate fault finding procedure.
The EPAS may be replaced only with the consent of the Techline.
When replacing the electric power assisted steering, carry out the following operations in order:
–disconnect the vehicle battery,
–replace the EPAS (see MR411 Mechanical systems, 36B, Power-assisted steering),
–reconnect the vehicle battery,
–connect the diagnostic tool, switch on the ignition and establish dialogue with the electric power-assisted
steering computer (EPAS computer),
–perform the configurations (see Configurations and programming),
–check that there are no faults, check the conformity of the variables, and check that the EPAS operates correctly
(steering assistance provided when the engine is running),
–perform a road test then, without switching off the ignition, check that status ET020 Steering wheel angle
sensor programming is Programmed (only for Vdiag 04).
B. Replacing the intermediate shaft or the steering rack (without changing the EPAS):
–disconnect the vehicle battery,
–replace the intermediate shaft or the steering rack (see MR 411 Mechanical systems, 36A, Steering
assembly),
–reconnect the vehicle battery,
–connect the diagnostic tool, switch on the ignition and establish dialogue with the electric power-assisted
steering computer (EPAS computer),
–check that there are no faults,
–check that the EPAS is working correctly (steering assistance available when the engine is running).
C. Replacing the power-assisted steering computer:
–disconnect the vehicle battery,
–replace the power-assisted steering computer,
–reconnect the vehicle battery,
–connect the diagnostic tool, switch on the ignition and establish dialogue with the electric power-assisted
steering computer (EPAS computer),
–configure the computer (see Configurations and programming),
–check that there are no faults,
–check that the EPAS is working correctly (steering assistance available when the engine is running). WARNING
Never leave the ignition switched on or the engine running during a mechanical operation on the EPAS or the
front axle. To avoid any accident, the battery must be disconnected (to prevent the risk of accidentally triggering
the EPAS motor).
