POWER STEERING SYSTEM Power Steering Warning Light Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The power steering ECU is connected to the combination meter via CAN communication. If any of the following conditions are detected, the power steering warning light remains on.

• The circuit that supplies power source voltage to the power steering ECU assembly (terminal IG) is open.

• The power supply voltage to the power steering ECU assembly (terminals IG and PIG) drops.
