    Vibration Driveshaft?

    Two Shaftec driveshafts sorted it. Back on the road and enjoying driving it again. Hope I don't shred them. I'll report how well they last.

    Vibration Driveshaft?

    Hi, My 2012 idetec type s tourer now has 166,000 miles. I have a vibration under light accelleration between 50-60mph feels like inner driveshaft. It's not wheels or tyres, I've just replaced the front tyres with Bridgestones. The left side has had a judder under braking for a while. I replaced...

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    The original unit with LKAS part number is 39980-TLO-T51. Most others have the same number up to the last 3. They mostly end in EO1 or EO2 (AO on American ones but other numbers are different). The one I fitted comes from an idtec manual and ended in EO2.

    Electronic power steering 8th gen Accord is there perm fix or not at all.

    I fixed mine with a second hand unit from Ebay. No-one else seems to have had an EPS control unit problem.

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    Wow! £48 ebay unit returns perfect power steering action shocker!:) No little orange steering wheel light on the dash - just the LKAS warning light now. After the 309 it feels like playing Sega Rally in the arcade (or Mariocart with the steering wheel on the wii). I feel 50% idiot for not trying...

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    Another update and no happy ending. Drove car 1 1/2hr to Holdcroft in Stoke like a wrestler. Hung about till late afternoon to be told they couldn't help. Said it could be the eps unit but no chance of them trying one till they'd charged 8hrs labour for a wiring check. Told me to try Honda UK to...

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    Right, here's a belated update on my ongoing EPS problem. First, thanks to F6HAD for helping me out with the diagnosis and fault code. It clearly suggested the EPS control unit is the problem. By removing the glovebox and standing on my head I got the unit out from the passenger foot well. There...

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    Hi F6HAD, thanks for the reply. The car still flies. My local garage plugged in briefly as a favour and said there were a lot of faults logged, some relating to the screen and some to the eps module but he wasn't specific about codes. I'm in Leeds and all Honda dealers round me are shut. I'm not...

    2012 Type S EPS Fail

    Hi, I have a 2012 Type S Diesel Tourer. It's been mapped by Premier Tuning and I absolutely love it. Now I'm in trouble. The other day went to start it and got the EPS steering wheel light alternating with the LKAS light, and no power steering. The fault doesn't change when I switch on or off or...
