Fiat Panda EPS Electric Power Steering column
The electric power steering (EPS) column for Fiat Panda models is very common for failing. Steering assistance will be lost in both directions when this steering column fails, and the PAS (power assisted steering) warning light will be constantly illuminated.
With this warning light being present there will often be fault codes stored in the EPS system. C1002 – Steering Column Torque Position Sensor is the most common fault code to be found when using diagnostic tools on the vehicle.
When this power steering column fails you may also notice vibration within the steering wheel and a very noisy operation of the power steering motor.
