Abstract:
When the state where steering torque detected by a torque detection unit is normal and the value of the steering torque is the same as or larger than a threshold value continues, an assist command generation unit that generates an assist command corresponding to steering torque produced by a driver limits the assist command; a failure determination unit includes a first failure determination unit that performs determination on a failure regardless of the limitation of the assist command and a second failure determination unit that performs determination on a failure while the assist command is limited, and stops driving of a motor when the second failure determination unit determines that there exists a failure.

Claim (Index 26):
The electric power steering apparatus according to  claim 19 , wherein the second failure determiner measures a time in which during a first predetermined time T 1 , the currents of respective phases of the motor become the same as or larger than a positive predetermined threshold value and a time in which during the first predetermined time T 1 , the currents of the respective phases of the motor become the same as or smaller than a negative predetermined threshold value; in the case where the time in which the currents of the respective phases of the motor become the same as or larger than the positive predetermined threshold value or the time in which the currents of the respective phases of the motor become the same as or smaller than the negative predetermined threshold value is the same as or shorter than a second predetermined time T 2 , the second failure determiner determines that the failure exists.
