I have all electrical power and battery is only six months old. No error codes from OBD2 reader but have two indicators lights illuminated on dash (starter system and electric power steering). The EPS fuse tests good. Disconnected battery and let it sit to see if maybe it was a "bit flip" in system that would clear no luck. Any ideas where the EPS and starter system overlap that could cause this? My next step is going to be to go through and check every relay.

Hello,

When you say the fuse is good did you check to see if the fuse has power? Here is a guide to help us find out. Did you check the 7.5 amp #24?

Here is the fuse location as well.

Check out the diagrams (below).

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

Thanks Ken. About an hour after posting this question I began verifying all fuses had good connectivity using a multi-meter (both in engine compartment and under drivers side dash). I then visually inspected all visible wires under dash on drivers side and moved to passengers side under dash and found a wire going into the power assembly unit that appears to have been improperly had a 8 ga. Wire spliced into the 20 ga. Using a heat wrap that had separated. I spent $0.30 for some 20 ga. Wire and connected it up and resolved the problem. Thanks again for your time.
