Fail Saf
EPS system
- EPS system enters the fail-safe mode (that allows the steering
force to be controlled without impairing the drive ability) if any of
the input/output signals to/from EPS system (power steering control
unit) deviate from the standard.
NOTE:
The system enters the fail-safe mode if the engine speed remains
at 1,500 RPM or more for over 10 seconds while the vehicle is
stopped. This is normal. - The fail-safe function is cancelled when a vehicle speed signal of 2
km/h (1.2 MPH) or more is inputted or the key switch is turned
OFF→ ON. EPS system restores the normal operation at that time
