    YES 

    • Substitute with a known-good EPS CM and check for proper operation.
    • If the problem is corrected, replace EPS CM and then go to Verification Of Vehicle Repair procedure below.

    NO 

    • Check torque sensor for contamination, deterioration, or damage.
    • Substitute with a known-good steering column assembly and check for proper operation.
