Power Steering
(XTX/XTZ)
Some vehicles were produced with an
Electronic Power Steering (EPS) system to
reduce steering effort and driver fatigue
over a broad range of operating conditions.
The EPS system engages when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the ON position
and disengages after approximately five
minutes (to conserve battery power) if
the engine is not running.
This system is entirely maintenance-free:
no adjustment or servicing is required.
There are no fluids to check or change, and
the EPS system is entirely self-contained
and sealed to protect it from the elements.
HDX187A
The EPS system is battery system pow-
ered; therefore, the battery must be in
good condition and fully charged. Power
delivery and overload protection is pro-
vided by an EPS relay and 30-amp fuse
located under the seat in the Power Dis-
tribution Module (PDM).
The system is self-monitored and will
display a "P0635" malfunction code on
the LCD gauge/speedometer should an
EPS system control circuit problem
occur. Do not operate the vehicle with a
"P0635" malfunction code displayed.
