Electro-hydraulic Power Steering Pump
Common Faults
Electro-hydraulic power steering is a system that uses both electric and hydraulic power to assist the driver in steering the vehicle. The electric motor provides the power to operate the hydraulic pump, which in turn generates pressure to assist with steering. This system provides a more efficient and responsive steering experience compared to traditional hydraulic power steering systems. It also allows for more precise control and improved fuel efficiency.

EHPS No Communication
If the EHPS pump fails, the red power steering warning light will appear on the instrument cluster, resulting in a loss of assisted steering. Additionally, attempting to read diagnostic trouble codes from the EHPS module will yield no communication. Other control modules may also have fault codes stored, indicating they cannot communicate with the Electro-Hydraulic Power Steering Pump over CAN. This issue is particularly common in VAG vehicles like the Volkswagen Polo, Volkswagen Fox, Seat Ibiza, Skoda Fabia, and others. If you are experiencing a communication failure, please complete our test form to have your EHPS tested and repaired.
Fault Code 00668 - Supply Voltage Terminal 30
If you own a VAG vehicle with an EHPS Pump installed, and the red power steering warning light is illuminated on the instrument cluster, you may be experiencing this defect. When the EHPS is communicated with, a fault code of 00668 - Supply Voltage Terminal 30 may appear. This code is related to the 12v battery supply to the pump and is a clear indication that your EHPS Pump is on its way to complete failure, resulting in no communication. VCUS can fix this issue within our 2-3 day turnaround time. Fill out our test form today to get your EHPS Pump rebuilt.
