Signal Name Description Condition Impact
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) electronic control unit (ECU) receives invalid controller area network (CAN) messages from the Restraint Control Module (RCM) on the CAN bus.
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) ECU receives invalid CAN messages from the RCM on the CAN bus.
Steering assist may be reduced or may not function as expected.
The Electric Power Assist Steering (EPAS) electronic control unit (ECU) is not receiving the expected controller area network (CAN) messages from the Restraint Control Module (RCM) on the CAN bus.
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) ECU does not receive the expected CAN messages from the RCM on the CAN bus.
Steering assist may be reduced or may not function as expected. Since External Angle Control (EAC) requests may be rejected, Autopilot features may be unavailable or may not function as expected.
The electric power assist steering (EPAS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) is not receiving the wheel rotation message, resulting in a reduced amount of steering assist to preserve vehicle stability.
The electric power assist steering (EPAS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) does not receive the wheel rotation message.
The power steering is operational but the level of assist is decreased and External Angle Controller is inhibited.
The electric power assist steering (EPAS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) is not receiving the wheel speeds message, resulting in a reduced amount of steering assist to preserve vehicle stability.
The electric power assist steering (EPAS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) does not receive the wheel speeds message.
The power steering is operational but the level of assist is decreased.
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) electronic control unit (ECU) detects that the controller area network (CAN) bus is off.
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) ECU detects that the CAN transmit error counter is above 255.
Steering assist may be reduced or may not function as expected. Since External Angle Control (EAC) requests may be rejected, Autopilot features may be unavailable or may not function as expected.
