- Finally scanning my electric steering code in my Honda Civic Si after two years of driving like this!! Code is DTC-EPS Control Unit Internal Circuit, (55_1). If any of you are battling this same issue and have fixed it, comment below and let me know please... I have a feeling I'm going to need a new EPS Module. Enjoy

I had the eps issues also. Did the same thing with the brights. Brought it to honda dealership and they replaced the module for about 1k. Didnt fix the issue though. Had a buddy help me out and he replaced the entire steering rack with one he found at pick apart. Its fixed now but im kinda waiting for the light to turn back on haha.
May have similar issue. While on the highway, steering was unstable (pulling left and/or right from time to time). But no EPS light on. Have code “35-03 EPS control unit internal circuit CPU”. Any ideas? Thanks!
Have an EPS issue with my ep3 right now its eps code 16 i've cleared it a ton of times and it just keeps coming back so next step is to replace the whole rack just saving up to get a newer one
Hope this helps! Most 8thgen Si in Brazil that have this problem get fixed by only cleaning the steering wiring connectors. My 07 had this problem last week and so far so good, contact cleaner spray fixed it.
where are they located exactly so mine can be cleaned?
@@brax3209 you can access the cables from bellow. The connector should be above the subframe rear end, near to the steering hack. I dont have any photos but it is very easy to find if you have the car on a lifter.
También me gustaría saber dónde se encuentran esos clables
Your steering unit is gone. Its almost never the connector.
Mine has a wiper problem, they just stop working. Everything to do with it like ,wiper motor, and switch been replaced still nothing.
Had the same issue on my fa5 theirs a wiring harness that connects to the eps and it lies on the header and it cooks the insulation of the wires , what I did was I cut the harness short and put heat shield on the harness and moved it away from the header and never had the issue since January when I did that.
I'm thinking it's something to do with wiring for sure! Ever sense i've installed the header, the light has been on. The eps will shut off to protect itself from too much heat. Hopefully i figure out the issue.
@@TheGerbsteve What happened? Was the heat from the header the problem?
Bro most of the time if you clean your BAT poles and make sure that your BAT is fully charged will take care of the issue for you....This system were designed to use BAT power and a lot of it...so make sure your connections are clean and your wiring tight...Good luck...I went through this...
does this code have anything to do with when you removed eps sensors to do the vtec spool valve?
I mean, it may be those sensors, but I’ve been having this issue for two years now. It suckssss
true that man. i know you’ll figure it out tho! keep wrenching baby
Got a 2007 honda fit, hard steering issues.
💯👍🏼 Bro you’re never afraid to to dig in a solve an issue, money can’t buy that stuff 👏🏼
I try man! Confidence comes with experience
My civic si 06 is have a running rich code only when its get hot outside. I try clearing it and it comes back in 2 days any advice?
What did you clean? Your MAF? I'd look at that first if you issue is related to hot temps, could be some other sensor issue as well.
Try cleaning Maf like John said. Then I’d check you o2 sensor.
I’ve been having the same issue with my fa5. I did try replacing my eps module with a used one off of a wrecked fa5 and it didn’t help. Not sure if the module I replaced my old one with was bad as well. Good luck with the fix keep this series going.
The struggle is real. Before I spend some money on a module, I’m going to clean the eps connectors and see what happens.
@@TheGerbsteve Hopefully that works bro! I should try that as well. I bought the module for 20 bucks so I’m not really bummed out about it.
@@TheGerbsteve Hey bro. Have you tried resetting the eps module? Maybe this post will help www.8thcivic.com/threads/eps-reset.229514/
Or here's the reset procedure:
1. With the ignition switch OFF, bridge terminal # 4 and # 9 of the 16P Data Link Connector located under the dash on the driver's side. With vehicle on
ground, set front wheels in straight ahead driving position.
2. Turn ignition switch ON. The EPS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds. Within 4
seconds of turning the switch ON, while the EPS indicator is on, turn the steering wheel 45° to left from straight ahead driving position, and hold steering wheel in position until EPS indicator goes off.
3. Within 4 seconds after EPS indicator goes off, return steering wheel to straight ahead
driving position and release steering wheel. The EPS indicator comes on again 4 seconds
after releasing steering wheel.
4. Within 4 seconds after EPS indicator comes on, turn steering wheel 45° to left again and hold it in position. The EPS indicator goes off after 4 seconds.
5. With in 4 seconds after EPS indicator goes off, return steering wheel to straight ahead
driving position again and release steering wheel. The EPS indicator blinks twice 4 seconds after releasing steering wheel, indicating that DTC was released.
NOTE: If EPS indicator does not blink twice, an error was made in the procedure and DTC was not erased. Turn ignition switch OFF, and turn ignition switch ON. The EPS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds. Within 4 seconds of turning the switch ON, while the EPS indicator is on, turn the steering wheel 45° to left from straight ahead driving position, and hold steering wheel in position until EPS indicator goes off.
Turn ignition switch OFF after EPS indicator blinks twice. Remove jumper wire from DLC. Perform DTC code output operation, and be sure that code has been erased.
This might help after checking for cooked wires and/or a bad ground connection.
I have this eps problem since August 2018 Honda civic 2000 UK model, the problem is still on, please advice me on what to do pls
Did you find a solution?
I'm having the same issue with a subura .how did you fix this problem
Unfortunately I never fixed it.. stays off in the cold, but persist when it’s hot
Hey bro, I had the exact same code on my 8th si via my forxwell scanner… turns out its really code 37-01 step up circuit blah blah…. Foxwell and innova scanner code#’s are coded wrong(foxwell correct definition wrong code and innova 5610 wrong definition correct code)… look up code 37-01 honda eps.. same definition but really code 37-01… I used a junkyard module and eps reset using that same foxwell fixed my issue… bet of luck and get that beast’s electric power steering back up to 100%
🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏼
Did you ever figure it out I am having same code same problem sometimes it's there and steering is stiff or it just disappears and drives fine then comes back started troubleshooting alternator ground and fuses but nothing so far
I haven't, but I can get the light to go off, so I kind of forgot about it lol. I will say, replacing the eps fuse itself helped a lot.
@@TheGerbsteve how do you get the light to go off. once i know that i won’t care that it comes on and off any more. and where can i get the eps fuse
Turn vehicle on turn headlights on then high beams
What do you think internal means???? Two video's on this and nothing accomplished..
Gerb what's up buddy, my EPS came on when I was doing 55 on the fast lane making a right and it locked for a sec and I had no control and taped the wall smh lucky for me only the left front rim got damage since that happened I got a new EPS from Honda for 340.00 on March but haven't installed it.
What else happened? any updates?
This happened on my 2012 tsx after driving through puddles and water filled potholes. Turned off engine for 10 minutes and everything was back to normal. Likely water got onto eps module.
thanks for this reply, i have a 2013 honda civic, i got this code and my power steering went off completely like in the video, and it has been raining very hard these past few days and i mainly drive on the freeways...
Did you ever figure out this issue?? I am currently dealing with this on my 2013 Honda accord LX and I have a Foxwell NT301 but that doesn't support EPS scan. Any update would be appreciated!!
Hello, did you fix the issue. I recently got this issue. Honda Accord 2013 V6 Coupe. EPS light is on. Steering is very stiff. Can't drive the car.
Disconnect battery and checked EPS fuse and no fix.
Mechanics don't do electrical stuff or want to charge $100-200 for diagnostic.
Any tips will be greatly appreciated.
Price $ on parts etc...
Thanks
Having this same issue. Paid for a diagnostic and had to take it to Honda. I’ll update this week with what the deal is. I have a 2013 Honda accord v6
@@allisadalmeida2505 yes, share please.
Hey guys update. So essentially I had to take my car to Honda for an overall diagnosis which you’re going to be looking at 70-160$ depending on the issue and time. Secondly there is apparently a part not sure if it’s a battery or within the battery(sorry I’m a young girl and know nothing about cars) but they said there’s something faulty and to replace it would be 900$. They also said that it’s very dangerous to drive with that light coming on and said eventually the car just won’t work or will be stalled on the road if the issue doesn’t get resolved asap. So overll it’s about a 1k fix. I decided to just go ahead and get it fixed and hopefully after tomorrow my car will be back to normal.
One day before taking my car to the dealer I finally drove it. After 20 minutes I stopped and turned it off. An hour later, I turned it on again and the issue was gone.
Did you end up just replacing the EPS unit?
I haven’t replaced anything yet
I have the same problem on my son's 2012 civic with only 68K miles on it. I drove to autozone and advanced auto parts to see what the codes were. The handheld scanner read 61-11 and it wouldn't let me clear the code. I replaced the battery this morning and it didn't fix the issue. I'll replace the EPS if I can find a decent one. This sucks
What a bummer! This problem definitely sucks and makes me kind of lose passion for the car. I'm definitely not going to buy a new steering rack for $1,000 ++ because i heard of people replacing the rack and the issue just coming back. Only two things I'm going to try are cleaning the wiring and maybe replacing the eps module ($100) part. Wish you the best with yours
@@TheGerbsteve I was able to reset the error by turning the steering wheel to the left, turn car on, code went away, finally straightened out the wheels. It was fixed for a day, lol. I’m going to check out the eps module when my son gets out of work. Probably order a replacement. This still sucks
That you fixed
Bro
hi bro !! hondata scan no show this code?
Had no luck scanning eps code, that’s why I had to buy this scan gun.
Did you replace the EPS module?
I didn’t. That is one of the last things I was consider trying. Lost motivation trying to fix it though
@@TheGerbsteve
My Accord 2013 has esps light on and steering is very stiff. I can't drive the car. I checked EPS fuse, disconnected and connected the battery. No luck.
Any extra tips you might want to share?
Mechanics don't know how to and some want to charge $100 just to diagnose it.
Thanks
You might need to buy the eps control unit itself instead of the whole rack
Thought the same thing ! I can get a used module for $100.00
So did you get it fixed?
Unfortunately not
As something as simple as power steering that can even be built without power assist has to be complicated. This isn't just poking at Honda either.
I have the same problem with my 2004 Honda Accord cl7
It’s no fun man
Mine said p2042 I think. Sutn bout bank 1 rich af lol. I think my o2 is dirty af. I got mad exhaust leaks. :/
May need a new upstream o2 sensor.
Mines has the annoying Vsa code 😢
What happens with that ?
Yes EPS just came on on a 2004 Honda Civic SI hatchback s***
Doesn’t sound like fun
Is this a normal code scanner? Bhruh did you get the problem fixed ?? My normal code scanner didn’t fuckin work I’m pissed lol
Your steering unit is shot. Its like 350.00 for a rebuilt unit at Rock Auto
Thanks man, I'm going to check into that
Needs control module
Looks like Durham
when u isntalling the maxpeedingrods
I get that question a lot haha. I’d like to fix my eps first, then focus on the coil overs.
Too bad you skipped the part on how to connect it...
Obd2
@@ApoqTF Yah thanks ;)
I meant the plug location...
I found it , was in a bit unconventional place :)
Above the gas paddle to the top right.
THanks anyway !

U solved nothing
