I'm working on this car sor several days now fixing airbags and some electrical problems... After all the electric repairs I have the EPS faulty.

HERE ARE THE DTC's out of the ICM (Integrated Chassis Module)
EPS is not responding / no communication

D019BF mESSAGE (Actual steering torque, driver, actuator 49.0.2) missing, receiver ICM transmitter.

D016A5 Message (display, check cotrol driving dynamics 02,218.11.32) missing, receiver ICM, transmitter EPS

D015C4 Message (electrical sterring,front axle, 234.1.2) missing, receiver ICM, transmitter EPS

This vehicle had a frontal left collision. EPS harness was damaged but properly repaired (spliced-soldered-shrink tube). Pinponted wires and terminals at the EPS unit looking OK.

Fuses # 1, 8, 13, 24, 39, 43, 45, 134 checked.

Is there anyting that I'm missing or overlooking?

Thanks!

I was thinking out about the posibility of a bad splicing, so i just run a paralel harness. Same thing. !! On the CAN (twisted wires) I have a reading of 96.7 / 100 ohms .

I suspect that the EPS was fried out.... but is a expensive bet!

Can't find online any diagram or wiring specs that can lead me to the antecessor or previous modules on the can.

any other diagnostic tip available?
