Fail-Safe

 
 EPS system

  • EPS system enters the fail-safe mode (that allows the steering force to be controlled without impairing the drivability) if any of the input/output values to/from EPS system (power steering control unit) deviate from the standard range.
    JSGIA0368GB.JPG
    NOTE:
    The system enters the fail-safe mode if the engine speed remains at 1,500 rpm or more for over 10 seconds while the vehicle is stopped. This is normal.
  • The fail-safe function is canceled when a vehicle speed signal of 2 km/h (1.2 MPH) or more is inputted or the ignition switch is turned OFF→ON. EPS system restores the normal operation at that time.

Fail-safe


Vehicle speed signal input
  • Engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more and there is no vehicle speed signal input for over 10 seconds during vehicle travel.
  • Vehicle speed signal has abruptly dropped from 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more to 2 km/h (1.2 MPH) or less within 1.4 seconds.
