Electric power steering for Lada Kalina: how much does it cost and what does it consist of?


New products follow us step by step. Some technologies are being replaced by others. A person, wanting to make his life easier, begins to introduce them into a car. If earlier in the car there was a well-known “meat grinder”, which was used to open the car windows, now you can hardly see it anywhere; to facilitate this action, electric windows have been installed. The same thing happened with a regular steering wheel. To make steering easier, they first came up with power steering, and then electric power.

Electric power steering, also called electric power steering, is a system that is designed to reduce the effort required to twist the steering wheel. That is, if previously you had to use both hands to twist the steering wheel, now this action can be performed with one finger.

Prices for electric power steering for the Lada Kalina model range from 5,000 rubles for a used part to 25,000 rubles for a new one.

What malfunctions threaten the EUR on Kalina and what are the ways to eliminate them?

Electric power steering is a component used to provide more comfortable driving. Not so long ago, domestically produced cars began to be equipped with EUR, in particular, in this article we will talk about Lada Kalinas. What malfunctions can occur with the Kalina EUR and what troubleshooting methods are there? Find answers to these and other questions below.

Causes of EUR failure

Why does the electric power steering on the Lada Kalina not work, turns off and refuses to work, what are the signs of a steering wheel with power steering knocking, jamming, biting or squeaking? To repair the system yourself, you need to know how diagnostics are carried out and what causes precede the breakdown. Most often, the failure of the amplifier is caused by a breakdown of the unit itself and the amplifier fails. Problems of this type are resolved by thoroughly checking the system to identify the exact problem.

As practice shows, often the inoperability of the electric amplifier (failure) is associated with a breakdown of the speed controller.

  • the steering wheel is jammed,
  • jams
  • becomes tight
  • and others

Because the speed controller sensor ensures activation and deactivation of the electric power steering under different driving modes. The amplifier on Kalina works if the car is moving at low speed. When the speed begins to increase, the booster automatically turns off, allowing for safer machine control when driving at high speeds.

So, briefly about the reasons for the inoperability of the EUR:

  1. The speed controller has failed or the control unit does not receive or disappears a signal from it. In this case, the reason may lie in either a breakdown of the sensor, damaged wiring, or poor contact of the controller with the on-board network.
  2. The voltage in the vehicle's electrical network has decreased. The reasons can be different, ranging from a dead battery and an inoperative generator to the use of inappropriate electrical equipment in the car.
  3. The permissible crankshaft speed has been exceeded.
  4. Incorrect operation or failure of the control module. Depending on the cause, the control unit may need to be repaired; more detailed diagnostics need to be done.

Installation of EUR

Required Tools

Let's say you purchased an EUR kit - it could be from a VAZ 2110 or from another model, for example, from a Priora. Prepare the following tools:

  • Drill together with a metal drill.
  • Set of screwdrivers, grinder.
  • Long ruler.

All is ready? Let's move on to installation.

Step-by-step instruction

  1. You need to remove the standard terminal from the block and place it in the block on the harness. We find the standard drive, which is attached to the block. A free terminal must be installed in its place. Now the wire can be placed between the fasteners.

Adjustment

After assembly, you will need to straighten the steering wheel if it is installed crooked. Separately install the sensor that came with the EUR. If the column casing is cracked, it is better to immediately replace it with a good one. There may be gaps between the front panel and the casing - they must be removed.

Diagnostics

To check the amplifier in a car, you need to remove the plastic trim on the steering column; to do this, unscrew the bolts securing it from the bottom.

Then you will need to get to the 8-pin plug, its pinout is as follows:

  • The blue contact is connected to the ignition switch, this is 12 volt power;
  • the red-brown contact is the connection cable to the tachometer;
  • the gray contact goes to the car speed controller;
  • white and pink wire - amplifier control indicator;
  • black-yellow contact is a diagnostic line;
  • the next contact is empty, the wire is not connected to it;
  • brown contact is ground;
  • empty.

More accurate results will be obtained by checking the amplifier using a scanner. But since such equipment can usually only be found at service stations, you can try to check the operation of the system with a paper clip.

To check you need to do the following:

  1. First the ignition is turned off.
  2. Then, using a paper clip, you need to close contacts numbered 6 and 7 of this plug, while the plug itself does not need to be removed.
  3. Next, the ignition must be turned on.
  4. After completing these steps, the EUR failure indicator located in the dashboard will begin to blink; by the number of blinks, you can determine whether the system is broken (the author of the video is Gosha Vakhromeev).

How to understand where to look for the cause by the blinking indicator icons:

  • one long signal and one short signal - the electric amplifier is working;
  • one long and two short - no engine speed signal;
  • one long and three short - the torque controller is out of order or there is no power supply;
  • one long and four short blinks—problems in the operation of the electric power steering motor;
  • one long and five short - the steering shaft position controller has failed;
  • one long and six short - the motor rotor position controller has failed;
  • one long and seven short - problems with the electrical network - the voltage is either too high or very low;
  • one long and eight short - the control module of the electric amplifier has failed;
  • one long and nine short - the speed controller is broken.

Error codes

c1044 - incorrect sequence of the rotor position sensor (RPS)

c1621 - incorrect voltage 5V

c1622 - speed signal circuit failure

c1011 - car engine speed signal circuit, no signal - the signal from the idle sensor (or the standard tachometer through a voltage limiter) is divided by 4 and applied to the tachometer input,

c1022 - error, voltage of the main output of the torque sensor - it is possible that the shaft cover has rubbed the insulation and the middle, green wire shorts to ground

What a driver needs to know about EMUR

  • brushless electric motor;
  • gearbox;
  • Control block.
  • torque sensor;
  • speed sensor;
  • crankshaft speed sensor.

The lamp indicating a malfunction of the electric booster on Kalina lights up as soon as the ignition is turned on. After starting the engine it goes out. This is normal operation of the system, but if it breaks down, even after starting the engine, the lamp continues to light.

  1. There is no signal from the speed sensor.
  2. Critically low voltage in the on-board network.
  3. The permissible engine speed has been exceeded.
  4. Control unit malfunction.

A malfunction of the control unit is a reason to visit a diagnostician who will conduct a quality inspection and identify the breakdown. Moreover, some problems can be fixed by an electrician, but some turn out to be fatal, and only replacing the entire unit will help.

Replacement of rear suspension elements, or more precisely rear shock absorber struts, should be carried out when the old ones begin to “snot”, or there is a desire to replace the “stock” struts with struts with the most comfortable characteristics.

And about replacing the front struts and when it is necessary to change them in this material.

In the video, replacing the rear struts on a Lada Kalina (details):

Dismantling and disassembling the electric amplifier

Before removing the amplifier, you need to remove all the steering column switches. Remove the steering rack cover and dismantle the devices, remembering to disconnect the connectors from the power supply.

How to remove the EUR with your own hands:

  1. After removing the switches, you will need to dismantle the lower cross member of the dashboard. To do this, you need to press the fasteners that secure the connector with wires, and then disconnect the wiring from the control module. Once these steps are completed, you can disconnect the connector from the switches.
  2. The system bracket is secured with nuts; you will need to unscrew them with a wrench.
  3. After this, the steering rack will need to be carefully lowered down. To do this, you will need to find the bolt that secures the driveshaft to the booster shaft. This bolt must be unscrewed, but when unscrewing, you will need to fix the nut, this will prevent it from turning. When the bolt is removed, the fastening will need to be loosened, after which the intermediate shaft will be carefully removed. At this stage, we recommend marking the position of the shaft and gears; you can use a marker for this. This step is very important because doing it will prevent possible installation problems in the future. If the marks on the shafts do not match, this may cause problems with the amplifier. When dismantling, be careful not to damage the wiring, as this will also lead to the inoperability of the ESD.
  4. When the unit is dismantled, it will need to be disassembled and the failed elements replaced. Further editing is done in reverse order (the author of the video is Murzik Bely).

Tool for getting the job done

In order for the work to be completed in the shortest possible time, it is important to have all the necessary tools at hand:

  • The key is "6", "17", "19".
  • Flathead screwdriver.
  • Spring ties.
  • Heavy hammer.
  • WD-40.
  • The collar and levers for them.
  • Mount.
  • New racks and components for them.

When all the tools are prepared, you can start working.

Step-by-step work order

  1. Place the car on a flat surface and turn on the handbrake. Check its operation, that it is not loose and adjusted.
  2. We hang the rear wheels one at a time; the order in this case does not matter.
  3. Then we get to work in the cabin, and by folding back the rear seat, using a flat-head screwdriver, we remove the decorative cap that covers the pillar rod.
  4. Next, use a 17 spanner to unscrew the nut and at the same time hold the rod with a 6 spanner. When the nut is unscrewed, we take it out along with the washer and the engraver.
  5. We move on to working with the spring, and using zip ties we tighten it in order to put the stand in its place without any extra effort.
  6. When everything is prepared and nothing is in the way, using the key “19” we unscrew the lower mount of the rack.
  7. At this stage, some difficulties may arise (due to the “sticking” of the nut or fastening bolt) which can be solved with WD-40 lubricant, and if this does not help, then only by completely cutting it off from the seat with an angle grinder.
  8. Installation of new racks should be carried out strictly in the reverse order, however, please note that along with the racks, new bumpers, boots and rubber bands, bolts with self-locking nuts should be installed.

Whether to install special sound insulators from SS-20 is up to you to decide. Owners of Lada Kalina cars note some changes due to the reduction of unnecessary creaking from the contact of the spring with the strut thanks to the installation of this option.

  1. After installing the rod nut, put the decorative plug in place, turn the wheels and release the car from the jack.

Replacing the rear shock absorber strut on a Lada Kalina will be easier and faster with the help of an assistant.

How to tighten the electric power steering rack?

The appearance of a knocking sound in the operation of the electric power steering is associated with the need to tighten the steering rack.

How to do it right:

  1. First you need to disconnect the battery; to do this, disconnect the terminals from it. Unscrew the battery mount; to do this, you need to unscrew two more nuts located at the edges. After this, the battery is removed and put aside.
  2. Then you need to lift the plastic stand, there are four more screws under it, they can also be unscrewed.
  3. Having done this, it is necessary to move this stand forward until the platform is disconnected from the air filter housing retainer pad. After this, the trim can be moved back, this will provide freer access to the rail itself.
  4. At the next stage, you will need to crawl your hand under the rail. Directly below it, as shown in the photo, there is a rubberized cap; it will need to be removed, this will allow the key to access the adjusting nut.
  5. To perform adjustment work, you will need a special wrench to tighten the rack; without it, the adjustment procedure will not be possible. Using this wrench, you need to crawl under the car rail to install the tool in the required hole.
  6. When adjusting, be careful not to overtighten the rack. If its tightening is very strong, then when cornering the rack will bite, and this, in turn, may affect the safety of movement. The angle of adjustment is always different, it depends on how much the nut is loose, but usually when performing such work the nut is tightened by approximately 30 degrees. This should be enough to get everything right. After the adjustment is completed, it will be necessary to check that this task was performed correctly. That is, you will need to make sure that the steering wheel turns normally to any position all the way and there is no knocking. If the knock remains, then the adjustment continues.

How to install the EUR on a standard Kalina with your own hands

Lada Kalina cars are equipped with electric power steering. Its design is very simple, it consists of one block, so even on a standard vehicle, the EUR can be installed without any problems. It contains no liquid, which means it is easy to maintain. But it is worth paying attention to the experience of foreign manufacturers who try not to install ESD in their cars. This mechanism has a special feature: it can operate at both low and high speeds. The second option is undesirable, since the slightest movement of the steering wheel can cause the car to drift into a ditch or to the side of the road.

The Lada electric power steering circuit provides for the mechanism to operate at different speeds, and when driving it either functions or turns off. The malfunction is that the EUR stops in one state. It is prohibited to use the vehicle until the breakdown is repaired. A yellow light on the dashboard will indicate the problem. It shows an exclamation mark and a steering wheel. If the malfunction lies in the power steering unit, and it is not possible to eliminate it, you should remove the fuse that is responsible for the operation of the electric amplifier. It should be taken into account that EMUR can fail not only on old, but also on new Kalinas that have not had time to be run-in.

Replacing the electric power steering

The procedure for replacing a unit in a Lada Kalina car should be carried out exclusively by experienced specialists. If the warranty period for your vehicle has not expired, then, of course, you need to contact an authorized dealer to fix the problem. If the car is no longer under warranty, and, as you know, the cost of repairs can be quite high, you can try to solve the problem by replacing the unit. But before we move on to eliminating it, it is necessary to take into account that the replacement procedure itself is not particularly simple. So if you do not have the technical knowledge, experience and skills in carrying out this task, then it is better not to even attempt it.

Pros and cons of electric booster?

  • Compact mechanism . The device itself is installed on the steering shaft, thereby taking up no space under the hood.
  • Easy to maintain . The electric booster does not require constant monitoring of the fluid level.
  • Easily customizable.
  • Economical . The electric motor only turns on when the steering wheel is turned.
  • During heavy operation, the electric amplifier overheats. For example, on a dirt road after rain.
  • Low power. The reason for this was not a powerful electric generator.

Don't forget that power steering of any type can also be dangerous.

Operating rules for electric power steering

In order for the mechanism to work correctly and serve properly for a long time, it needs to be used correctly. Subject to this, you will not soon find out how the amplifier is repaired and how much it costs.

The amplifier relay does not like any kind of influence on itself (mechanical or physical). This is a very fragile part, do not drop it under any circumstances. Well, if this happens, carefully inspect it, and if parts break, replace them.

Avoid mechanical heating of electrical appliances, as well as the possibility of being in a damp room. Do not touch the contacts of the device under any circumstances; they may become deformed and will need to be replaced. After installing the control unit, be sure to configure it so that the correct vehicle speed is subsequently displayed.

Any kind of impact on the steering column assembly is prohibited . Any mechanism, including the EUR, does not like it when someone tries to influence it from the outside. Therefore, without having the skills to repair this system, it is better not to try to start.

Causes of amplifier failure

A fairly common cause of power steering failure is incorrect operation of the speed sensor. Replacing and eliminating the problem will not cost the car owner much, and you can perform this operation yourself. The higher the vehicle speed, the less the amplifier works, making it easier to control. If the sensor malfunctions, the amplifier reads incorrect information and turns off. This type of failure is easy to detect. The EUR light on the dashboard will simply light up. All you need to do is replace the speed sensor.

Another reason for an amplifier to fail is a malfunction of the amplifier itself. The solution to this problem will not be cheap.

Changes are certified, these power steering units are supplied to VAZ

VAZ supplies a lot of things, but this does not mean that all this is certified for Kalina, everything here is adult. Don’t indulge yourself in illusions; steering is not a toy.

It is unlikely that VAZ certified Kalina with power steering. Therefore, there will be problems with technical inspection. Read Appendix No. 2 to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1240 of 2000.

Kalina control rack - VAZ 11183 Kalina rack repair

Have you ever had a chance to monitor knocks and noises from the side? Probably it happened. They changed the control tips, changed the ball tips, even changed the springs with support bearings, but does the knocking continue? It's time to tug, make sure there is free play and start sorting out the rack. In this article I will talk about repairing the VAZ 11183 rack , but the development is identical to all other VAZ front-wheel drive racks.

The most interesting thing is that these motherfuckers from AvtoVAZ do not fundamentally change anything except the gearbox housing, I bought a repair kit 2110-2112, the rack is listed in catalogs as 2110, but the splined part is longer than 2110, and the gearbox is slightly different, so just change Unfortunately, 11183 for 2110 will not work, although 2110 costs 2500 in my town, and 11183 5500 costs 6000 rubles. The difference per pocket is very noticeable.

Well, it doesn’t fit and doesn’t fit, so we give the engineers a hard time and start disassembling it. Unfortunately, there won’t be a photo for the article, because I was up to my elbows in mud and didn’t want to wash myself for the sake of pictures, but I’ll try to describe everything carefully.

Removing the steering mechanism.

1. For convenience of work in the future, and so as not to climb into the interior with stains, unscrew the bolt securing the splined connection from inside the cabin (you will see it near the floor of the control shaft).

2. We lift the car on a lift, throw it down, and knock out the control tips from the steering knuckles.

INSTALLING EUR (ELECTRIC POWER STEERING) ON KALINA The amplifier itself was purchased in Cherepovets today (special thanks to SASHA BEARD). True, with some disappointment, but it’s no one’s fault

At first I waited for the EUR to be delivered to another store, today I called and asked if there was an amplifier? -there is.. -whose? Kaluga how fast? -11500 (good) -IT IS WITHOUT GEARBOX. (I ASKED THREE TIMES) - yes, without a gearbox (they answered three times) - okay, I’ll arrive in three hours, typed the address into the nafigator and went

in general, the nafigator is a different story, he’s lying shamelessly, it’s good that there is a connection and Sasha sorted it out on the spot

well there was a spare option in another store but there the price is 16250 (almost five pieces) but without a gearbox

I looked in the general one, I’m asking about the connectors and there is NO schematic, okay, I bought it as is, in the general one, I’ll have to look for something for a schematic, then I’ll somehow dig it up, but with the connector it will be more difficult, can anyone help me dig up a connector with wires from the shops, of course there’s no disassembly, there was only one at work but they sold it a week ago along with the amplifier

Added 10/12/2011 12:32:59: the amplifier could not be installed, many parts are missing

car disassembly before disassembly

We carefully disassemble everything and get this

We are trying to install another one, of course it doesn’t fit, we need an adapter plate and a different cardan according to the photo, numbers 3, 6, and 8

you still need connectors like these

and so at this stage everything has been put back together and we are waiting for spare parts to either order or look for a donor, I’ll probably order

Fuse box

The weak link of the electric power steering on Kalina is the fuse box; if something doesn’t work, it’s worth checking them. To get to them, you need to open the dashboard, to the left of the steering wheel. To do this, pull the top part towards you and the latch will open.

Check if the fuse is working, if it fails, replace it. It is very easy to check, check the integrity of the thread inside the fuse. Changing a 50 amp relay to a 30 amp one will also help.

Newer versions of Kalina are equipped with electric amplifiers from Hyundai, which has a positive effect on its reliability. However, there are still thousands of cars with the domestic version, which malfunctions and breaks down from time to time. Now it will be easier for you to repair the electric power steering on Kalina yourself. The main thing to remember is that not every amplifier shutdown is a breakdown. And you can find the problem yourself and fix it, but somewhere you will have to go to a service center.
