Ps (Electric Power Steering); Trx420Fpm Only) - Honda TRX420FPM Owner's Manual

Controls & Features

PS (Electric Power Steering) (

only)
TRX420FPM
This ATV is equipped with an electronically controlled, electric-power-
assisted steering system.
While the engine is running, the PS (Electric Power Steering) system
provides power from the electric motor, which helps you to turn the
ATV's handlebar more easily.
The PS system on this ATV utilizes an overheat protection feature to
prevent damage to system components. In certain extended, repetitive
high-load situations, the system will reduce or even disable power
steering assist. The steering will perform as a normal non-PS system
during this brief period. After cooling down, it will then return to
normal PS operation.
The PS indicator should light when the ignition switch is turned ON
( ) and remain on until the engine is started.
The PS indicator also lights when there is any abnormality in the PS
system. If this occurs, the electric power assist for turning will not be
available, but the manual steering system will perform as usual.
If the PS indicator lights at any time while riding, reduce speed and take
your ATV to your dealer as soon as possible. Continuing to ride with a
PS system problem can cause system damage.
Do not modify your Electric Power Steering system. In case of a
malfunction, take your ATV to your dealer.
