EPS(MDPS=Motor Driving Power Steering) ECU monitors internal circuit to protect abnormal operation. This test includes hardware (MCU, RAM, ROM and so on) test.
EPS(MDPS=Motor Driving Power Steering) ECU checks operating condition of H/W periodically. EPS ECU sets this code and turns on warning lamp if there is a fault in H/W. At that time EPS ECU inhibits EPS opreation.
