In this video, we show how to replace an EPS unit, on a 2012 Acura TSX SE ( special edition )

A regular cheap code scanner will not work, it needs to be a scanner that has SAS built in.

Part can be order for a hefty price of over $1k
Or go to a local junk yard and pull one out for under $30.

Warning:
“Please check power steering system”

Part # 39980-TL2-A0
Showa HTL2X-50-11M

    My 2013 TSX EPS unit is being replaced under warranty. They extended the warranty on EPS units to 15 years, unlimited mileage on some cars/years. Check on line, or at the Acura Dealership. If you already did the repairs, you might can get your money back (I read that on line).
  • Hello bruvva I just repaired my EPS today thanks to this video. I cannot thank you enough for making this available to everyone. I have saved alot of money going to a mechanic who would have probs ripped me off.

    Cut the bottom glove box trim that's perforated and made to be cut. Pull blower box. Makes job twice as easy. Thanks for video though.

    hey man, at 2:27 on top of the fuse box, there is slider type clip, I have 2.connectors on that blocking the screw. did you had those. If yes, how did you remove them
  • @wscottparks
    Do you know if this part can only go bad when it rains? I know that sounds funny, but I have a 2010 Acura TL, when it rains the power steering goes out, after it stops raining, everything is fine..Thoughts?
  • @PhiloHits
    I installed the used module; got exact same code. It’s definitely the wiring but I don’t know where to look for connections Beyond inside directly connected to module and those all look fine. Where would the next connector Be located so I can check? My fault code is 33-1 low fet stuck on.
  • @covelli007
    Did you do the toque sensor neutral position memorization after installing? The sensor needs to be calibrated now
  • @insulatoru8817
