Summary
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: PARTIAL REPAIR OF C-MDPS MOTOR, ECU, WORM GEAR AND/OR STEERING COLUMN HOUSING - This bulletin has been revised to include additional information. New/revised sections of this bulletin are indicated by a black bar in the margin area. This bulletin provides information regarding the partial repair of the Motor Driven Power Steering (MDPS) Motor, Electronic Control Unit (ECU), Steering Column Housing, or Worm Gear Assembly. When the steering wheel is rotated a scraping noise can be heard originating from the lower bearing on the Worm Gear Assembly on some 2010MY~ Kia
models listed on page 8, equipped with a Column Motor Driven Power Steering (C-MDPS) unit.
Check MDPS ECU/VSM CAN line.
Check communication status
with GDS.
Check for DTC C1259.
If present, replace the column and h
ousing assembly.
If DTC returns and MDPS is
inoperable, replace MDPS ECU.
If DTC returns and MDPS
operation is normal, continue
investigation into wiring issues.
