Abstract
Control method for an electric power steering apparatus feeds back a motor current, flowing through a motor whose operation is controlled in accordance with a target motor current, so that the driving of the motor is controlled with the fed-back motor current. Peak value of the motor current is detected, and, for feedback control based on the detected peak value, the detected peak value is corrected to decrease. The thus-corrected peak value is fed back to control the motor current to conform to a target motor current value.
