Sometimes (few) a fault in the wiring loop causing it to short on the steering column and turn on EPS (Electronic Power Steering), check it and scanned for know if some additional fault code is stored there.

Keep us updated.

    My wife's Hyundai ET 2010 was sitting in the driveway for a week while she was away at a conference.....she started it up upon her return and the EPS light stayed on and she had no power steering. I read a bunch of info on the net (including the post above)....went back outside and started the car....EPS light on and no power steering.....then opened the hood, found the EPS module and just lightly wiggled an electrical wire coming out from the EPS module's left side....got back in the car and started it up....NO EPS LIGHT AND WE HAVE POWER STEERING BACK.....but for how long? I don't want my wife to be driving and lose power steering while on the road! Is it safe to drive it to the garage?

Where do i pour in power steering fluid in a 2006 saturn vue

Doesn't use power steering fluid ,your vehicle has electrric power steering . What's the problem ? Light or message on instrument cluster ? SERVICE 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.
Your best bet ,take it to a qualified repair shop.

The letters EPS are lit up in red on the face of the tachometer in my 2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring. Dealer says it costs $95 to have them run diagnostic. Is that reasonable?

The electronic power steering (EPS) Warning Light is located on the instrument panel. This light illuminates when the EPS is malfunctioning. When this light is lit, your steering may be a little heavier, and you should schedule an inspection as soon as possible. Tip The EPS Warning Light briefly illuminates when the car is first turned on. The light is only a problem if it stays lit for an extended period.

Esp light on 2001 aclass

Hi there lose of power steering and the eps light coming on could be the power steering pump is broken or near stuffed so will require a new pump. The other reason is that your power steering oil level is to low and needs toping up. Also check that the drive belts driving the power steering pump are tight and not slipping.

Hope this helps.

Why does the car drag when changing gears? the various lights on the dashboard are blinking and it shows EPS

EPS indicates Electronic power steering warning light.---------The power steering needs to be inspected.The power steering pump, the power steering fluid, the power steering hose ,power steering belt and pulley. Get your car scanned by the dealer or at local car garage.That will be much helpful.As you will receive codes, as per codes you can replace the part or get the part checked.A fault in the wiring loop causes it to short on the steering column.This problem is very much noticed in Hyundai cars.-------

This will solve the problem or point you towards the cause of problem. Thank you for using fixya.
