CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW

Action for non-repeatable malfunction

If the malfunction does not recur, verify the malfunction cause by performing the following actions:

1. Verify that a DTC has been recorded in the memory using the M-MDS. (See ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD
DIAGNOSIS .)

2. Perform a simulation test in the simulation mode based on the repair order form, record the data at that time, and detect
the malfunction cause.

3. Shake the wiring harness or connector of the electrical component which is suspected to be the cause of the malfunction,
and inspect for the occurrence of any malfunction or DTCs.

4. Inspect the female terminals for poor connection.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS

On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Test Description

The OBD test inspects the integrity and function of the EPS and outputs the results when requested by the specific tests.

On-board diagnostic test also:

Provides a quick inspection of the EPS usually performed at the start of each diagnostic procedure.

Provides verification after repairs to ensure that no other faults occurred during service.

The OBD test is divided into 2 tests:

Read/clear diagnostic results, PID monitor and record.

Read/clear diagnostic results

This function allows reading or clearing of DTCs in the EPS CM memory.

PID/Data monitor and record

This function allows access of certain data values, input signals, calculated values, and system status information.

Reading DTCs Procedure

CMDTC self test

1. Connect the M-MDS (IDS) to the DLC-2.

2. After the vehicle is identified, select the following items from the initialization screen of the IDS.

a. Select “Self Test”.

b. Select “All CMDTCs”.

3. Verify the DTC according to the directions on the screen.

If any DTCs are displayed, perform troubleshooting according to the corresponding DTC inspection after recording the snapshot data.

4. After completion of repairs, clear all DTCs stored in the EPS. (See Clearing DTCs Procedure.)

http://am.mazdaserviceinfo.com/emazda/dealersystem/service/esi/en_us/SM/2013/CX5/mv/books/mvw06/html/id060200813500.html[1/7/13 10:12:01 AM]

NOTE:

The PID data screen function is used for monitoring the calculated value of input/output signals in the module.Therefore, if the monitored value of
the output parts is not within the specification, it is necessary to inspect the monitored value of input parts corresponding to the applicable output
part control. In addition, because the system does not display an output part malfunction as an abnormality in the monitored value, it is necessary

http://am.mazdaserviceinfo.com/emazda/dealersystem/service/esi/en_us/SM/2013/CX5/mv/books/mvw06/html/id060200813500.html[1/7/13 10:12:01 AM]

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS
to inspect the output parts individually.

When detecting DTCs, PIDs related to a malfunctioning system may not display even if the module is normal. Therefore, if a PID is not displayed, it
is necessary to verify the DTC, perform malfunction diagnosis of the DTC that was detected, and do repairs.

GENERAL PROCEDURES (STEERING)

< Previous   Next >

2013 - CX-5 - Steering

GENERAL PROCEDURES (STEERING)

WARNING:

Always inspect the steering component carefully for any shock or impact which may have
occurred during a collision or servicing operation. If a damaged part or a part suspected of
being damaged is used, it could result in an unexpected accident due to the steering
mechanism being inoperative. Always replace the damaged part or part suspected of being
damaged.

If the steering mechanism is turned from lock to lock continuously or the steering rack
terminal limit is reached repeatedly, such high-load steering action increases the
temperature of the steering column (to approx. 85 °C {185°F}), causing severe burns. Be
careful when handling the steering column.

If the steering column is dropped, the EPS CM could be damaged internally causing the
steering mechanism to become inoperative, which could result in an unexpected accident.
Always replace the steering column if it has been subjected to an impact.

CAUTION:

If the steering column is stored in a humid place, the EPS system may not operate
properly when installed to the vehicle. Store the steering column in a suitable place.

Be careful when handling the steering column because it weighs approximately 10 kg {22
lb} and it could fall off and be damaged while servicing.

If the intermediate shaft is connected to the steering gear (pinion) before installing the
steering column to the dashboard member, the weight of the steering column could cause
damage to the intermediate shaft slider/bush/yoke. Always follow the procedure in the
Workshop Manual.

The universal joint could be damaged if subjected to an impact when the intermediate
shaft (pinion) is disconnected. Perform the servicing carefully avoiding impact when
disconnecting the intermediate shaft from the steering gear (pinion).

Do not release the lock of the adjusting lever when handling the steering column unless it
is securely installed to the dashboard member. If the adjusting lever is unlocked with the
steering column not securely installed, the steering column and other parts could be
damaged.

A new steering column is shipped in a pre-set condition. Maintain this condition until the
steering column is completely installed to the dashboard member so as to avoid damage
during transportation and installation.

When removing/installing the steering column, keep the wiring harness away from the
steering column installation area so as to prevent the steering column from being caught
in the wiring harness and damaged.

NOTE:

When installing a replacement part, be careful not to rotate the steering shaft until the

http://am.mazdaserviceinfo.com/emazda/dealersystem/service/esi/en_us/SM/2013/CX5/mv/books/mvw06/html/id061000279700.html[1/7/13 10:13:45 AM]

GENERAL PROCEDURES (STEERING)

installation has been completed.

In order to completely interrupt the EPS system power supply, disconnect the battery for
20 s or more after the ignition switch is turned off.

Do not replace the steering column (EPS system) with that of another vehicle even if they
are the same model.

Wheel And Tire Installation

1. When installing the wheels and tires, tighten the wheel nuts in a criss-cross pattern to the
following tightening torque.

Tightening Torque

108—147 N·m {12—14 kgf·m, 80—108 ft·lbf}

Connectors disconnection

1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal before performing any work that requires handling
of connectors. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)

Suspension Links Removal/Installation

NOTE:

To prevent the bushings from being twisted or pinched, perform the procedures with no
passengers or luggage aboard the vehicle.

1. For the joint sections with rubber bushings, raise the vehicle using a lift and temporarily
tighten the installation nuts and bolts. Afterwards, tighten to the specified torque with the
wheels on the ground.

EPS Related Parts

CAUTION:

http://am.mazdaserviceinfo.com/emazda/dealersystem/service/esi/en_us/SM/2013/CX5/mv/books/mvw06/html/id061000279700.html[1/7/13 10:13:45 AM]

GENERAL PROCEDURES (STEERING)

If the EPS CM configuration is not completed, the EPS will not operate properly.If the
steering column component or EPS CM is replaced, always carry out the automatic
configuration so that the EPS operates properly.

1. Make sure that there are no DTCs in the EPS memory after working on EPS related parts.If
there are any DTCs in the memory, go to the applicable DTC diagnostic procedure. (See
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS .)
