Training course on diagnostics and repair of electric power steering units

A practical course that provides an understanding of how electric power steering (EPS) systems work, teaches how to identify faults, use measuring instruments, and perform diagnostics and repairs of EPS units. The course also covers software tools for coding, adaptation, and calibration of control units.

What you will learn

  • Understanding the principles of electric power steering systems and their components
  • Basics of electronics in steering systems (sensors, motors, controllers)
  • Diagnosis and testing of electronic and mechanical EPS components
  • Skills in using measuring instruments (multimeter, oscilloscope, etc.)
  • Identifying and resolving common faults across different types of power steering systems
  • Working with the MS561 PRO tester and scanners for software programming and updates
  • Practical skills in repairing EPS pumps and steering racks, including disassembly and reassembly procedures

The course “Diagnosis and Repair of Electric Power Steering (EPS) Systems” is designed for professionals seeking comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in diagnosing and repairing EPS systems.

This is a 4-day course covering theoretical aspects of steering systems, including types of assist systems (Hydraulic, Electrohydraulic, and Electromechanical) and their operating principles. Special attention is given to electronic components, their testing, and integration with diagnostic tools.

The practical part of the course involves working with real components: EPS pumps and steering racks, control units, and sensors — using modern diagnostic equipment such as the MS561 PRO tester. Participants will learn how to identify and eliminate both mechanical and electronic faults.

The course also covers working with software for coding, adaptation, and calibration of control units, which is an essential part of modern EPS system repair.
