Default sportsmen 850xp w/eps

hello
I have a 2009 850 xp with eps was just wondering when the check engine lite comes on does it retard or disables the power steering. or would the power steering be going bad to make the check engin lite to come on.....out riding and gone 2 miles or so thrue woods. not going very fast. check engine lite comes on and the power steering goes away....I turn off machine and while holding left yellow button machine starts and engine lite is off.....thanks doug

I have the same machine, but with no eps

I remember someone posting the same issue in the polaris forum some time ago- try doing a search if you didn't already- I don't remember what the issue was...
