What is EPS?

Today my customer said on screen "EPS fuse?" EPS contact?" I checked everything over then it started working again. I was going down the aisle with it, then those codes came up again and the sterring got tight and it went into "creep" mode...I cycled the key off/on, it went away for a bot then came back...i assuem it cant be a fuse, because it started working again then stopped....Any advice?

hey ctforkliftguy; EPS mains Electronic Power Steering. When does it come on the error message (when turning at the complete right or left turn......). Take a look at the EPS contactor if the contact tips are good and the brushes of the motor. It's an old model of reach truck so.....
kind regards
