Hi guys , my brother has got the Cfmoto cforce 800cc LWB automatic 2014. And it has an eps fault . Power steering not working at all. I've had a look for a service manual but can't find anything . Does anyone have the error code list.   

I'll upload a short vid of the flashing error.

It's had some alterations so I'm just trying to trace wires fuses etc.

The EPS 30a fuse is good and in tact when removed it removes the light from the dash

I've swapped relay  (unsure which one as wasn't labeled but presume bottom left of relay panel)

Checked wiring is connected from there direct to EPS controller

Wire then goes power out to the EPS motor. Then wire goes from eps into sensor .

Unsure of what voltages and pins to check . From there and in what order.

Rather not replace the whole unit due to cost if possible it can just be one part that is faulty .

Any help appreciated . Pm. Is open for code list

All I have is this EPS trouble shooter. It is for that EPS system though. Hope it helps.

Many thanks I'll take a look and see what it shows up.

Probs gonna be a few faults I reckon with it as I can see the fan has been over ridden and put on a separate switch direct off the batter etc

Looks like error code 32 to me . So if all looks okay then it says to replace ECU.

I presume this refers to the EPS ECU and not the main ECU ?

ECU= Engine Control Unit. Which is different from the EPS(Electric Power Steering) Controller. The EPS controller will get some info from the ECU such as speed & maybe RPM and if that data isn't available it may...may show up as an ECU error code in the EPS Controller. The ECU may not get that data because of a bad sensor.. and if that sensor isn't related to the EFI system, it may not show as an error for it so the MIL light may not flash. Does the speedometer work and show the right speed?

Thanks for the info, the Speedo and all dash lights and mil work correctly. I haven't checked any standard fault codes not related to the EPS light but guess I should start there just in case it's something else related first.

I just assumed the manual was a poor translation when it said replace the ECU with error code 32. Thinking it meant the EPS. Guess I didn't want to replace the ECU and then figure out I still have to replace the whole eps system . Mil  light does show , Speedo is fine . I did unplug all eps cables and it did seem to work for a short ride . But now the fault has returned.

Again I'll investigate further on Tuesday now and post back what I find. Thanks for your help

Just been sent a different eps code list. So unsure which is for this vehicle . This one gives a different fault for error 32 . And says to replace the controller (listed as an eps ECU)

Any ideas which is correct.

Also do you know where the EPS relay is located . I've got the main bank of relays. No mention of it in the owner's manual .

The top one isn't an EPS code set, its a ECU code set. The other is for EPS and then a trouble shooter.
