| Drop, impact, and overload |
Motor |
Abnormal noise |
- Visible or invisible damage can occur. The steering wheel could pull to one side by using the dropped parts.- Precise parts of motor/ECU are sensitive to vibration and impact.- Overload can cause unexpected damage
|
- Do not use the impacted EPS.- Do not overload each parts.
|
| ECU |
Circuit damage - Wrong welding point - Broken PCB-Damaged precise parts |
| Torque sensor |
Insufficient steering effort |
Overload to INPUT shaft can cause malfunction of the torque sensor |
- Do not impact the connecting parts (When inserting and torquing)- Use the specified tool to remove the steering wheel. (Do not hammer on it)- Do not use the impacted EPS
|
| Shaft |
Insufficient steering effort (Uneven between LH and RH) |
|
Do not use the impacted EPS |
| Pull/Dent |
Harness |
- Malfunction-impossible power operation - Malfunction of EPS
|
- Disconnection between harness connecting portion and harness
|
Do not overload the harness |
| Abnormal storage temperature |
Motor/ECU |
Abnormal steering effort by improper operation of the motor/ECU |
- Waterproof at the normal condition - Even a little moisture can cause malfunction of the precise parts of the motor/ECU
|
- Keep the normal temperature and proper moisture, while storing - Avoid drowning
