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.

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 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?

Thought the same thing ! I can get a used module for $100.00

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...

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

🙏🏼

I try man! Confidence comes with experience

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.

What happens with that ?

What else happened? any updates?

May need a new upstream o2 sensor.

Unfortunately I never fixed it.. stays off in the cold, but persist when it’s hot

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

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

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.

Thanks man, I'm going to check into that

I haven’t replaced anything yet

Doesn’t sound like fun

It’s no fun man

Unfortunately not

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

Had no luck scanning eps code, that’s why I had to buy this scan gun.

I get that question a lot haha. I’d like to fix my eps first, then focus on the coil overs.

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 ! PL.
