Eps flashing - 2008 Hyundai Elantra

Your vehicle has electric power steering
The electric power steering (EPS) system reduces the amount of effort needed to steer the vehicle. The system uses the body control module (BCM), power steering control module (PSCM), torque sensor, discrete battery voltage supply circuit, EPS motor, serial data bus, and the instrument panel cluster (IPC) message center to perform the system functions. The PSCM, torque sensor, nor the EPS motor are serviced separately from each other or from the steering column. Ant EPS components diagnosed to be malfunctioning requires replacement of the steering column assembly, also known as the EPS assembly.

If your red power steering warning light is illuminated on the dash, and/or your EPS is in-operative, then there are a number of issues that could be causing your problem. https://www.fiatforum.com/punto-ii/342594-help-my-power-steering-light-start-here.html

The EPS fuse is for the electric power steering. The EPS fuse is usually a 60 amp fuse. It may be a safety kill switch associated with not having a fuse in place. It is not usually safe to drive a car without the steering working properly. GM has had a huge recall on the EPS system, including some 2009 models.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)
The TSX uses Electric Power Steering (EPS) which regulates steering via a computer-actuated electric motor. With the computer-controlled system, advanced algorithms built into the operating software allow for continuous fine-tuning of the steering assist forces so that minimal force is required at low speeds- such as when parking or maneuvering. Conversely, progressively higher steering effort is generated at higher speeds (such as when driving on the freeway) to deliver a sport-minded driving experience.
The EPS system found in the TSX is an evolution of an earlier EPS system found on the Acura NSX supercar. Its key features and advantages include:

• The EPS system reduces the steering effort at low speeds, improving agility and ease of effort when parking or maneuvering in tight areas
• Rigidity of the steering mount is higher, which allows a more precise and "connected" feel during high-speed maneuvers (such as during lane changes or when on winding mountain roads)
• The EPS steering assist incorporates computer algorithms based on vehicle speed rather than engine speed, allowing TSX engineers the flexibility of tailoring the steering feel to match actual driving conditions- especially high-speed driving. The EPS steering algorithms incorporate steering assist changes for every 0.6 mph.
• The EPS system is different (and uniquely tuned) for each of the TSX models: 2.4L I-4 sedan, 3.5L V-6 sedan, and the new Sport Wagon.
• EPS employs a sporty, 13.5:1 steering ratio which further improves performance driving agility
• In its evolution from the original NSX system, the TSX's EPS system uses a significantly more powerful electric motor teamed with a far more sophisticated microprocessor
• By eliminating the conventional power steering pump assembly, EPS uses less engine power which improves acceleration and fuel efficiency

it is an electric pump without a pulley or belt or fluid apparently

1. disconnect the battery both terminals.
2.Look for EPS control module on front passanger deck below dashboard,disconnect the cable connector
3, spray both EPS and cable connector with contact cleaner aerosol.immediately plug in back.
4. Right above EPS module there are Air Con piping make sure the condensate water do not dripped onto EPS module by covering it with plastic sheet.
5. Spray all cables to battery terminal with contact cleaner and connect it back.
6. Start your engine .
In case it still dont work ,you have to look further into EPS motor.
Hope it will solve your problem at least it work for me.

First you have to check power steering fluid level, and if it's ok then you have to check power steering pump. If you have a EPS light on your dash, then you have to plug a ODBII diagnostic tool to read code and then interpret what the problem is.

Hello... This light indicates that you might have a problem with your Electronic Power Steering (EPS)...

Have a shop check it out...
