Kia EV6. Troubleshooting   

If the MDPS warning light does not illuminate, the following symptoms are normal :

• Immediately after starting the engine, there is no temporary auxiliary steering force during the MDPS system self-diagnosis time (about 2 seconds), but this is not a malfunction.

• Noise due to relay connection on engine On or Off, but this is normal operating sound.

• Noise due to motor rotation during steering or low-speed driving, but this is normal operating sound.

Cautions to be taken when handling the MDPS (Motor Driven Power Steering)

1.Failure occurs due to internal damage because of the drop of and shock and excessive external force on the new partial component.→ Be cautious of shock on the partial component and replace the damaged part (due to drop, etc.) with a new one.

2.When fastening the steering wheel, excessive impact may result in twisting the center point of the torque sensor.

3.When removing/installing the connector the wiring may be damaged (deformed) by excessive external force.

4.Be cautious when storing and replacing the partial components under the abnormal temperature and humidity conditions.
