PURPOSE: An MDPS(Motor Driven Power Steering) relay inspection device and method are provided to alternately inspect the normality of a relay through an MCU and a safety monitoring circuit at each power cycle. CONSTITUTION: An MDPS relay inspecting method comprises the following steps: confirming a final relay inspection mode in a storage unit(S220) when entering the power off step of an MDPS device(S210); determining a second inspection mode as a current inspection mode if the relay inspection mod is a first inspection mode; and delivering an inspection command for performing the second inspection mode to a safety monitoring circuit(S240). [Reference numerals] (AA) Start; (BB,DD) No; (CC,EE) Yes; (FF) End; (S210) Power off step?; (S220) Confirm the previous inspection mode; (S230) Previous inspection mode is a second inspection mode?; (S240) Determine a current inspection mode as a first inspection mode and deliver an inspection command to a safety monitoring circuit; (S250) Update the previous inspection mode with the first inspection mode; (S260) Determine the current inspection mode as the second inspection mode and deliver an inspection command to an MCU; (S270) Update the previous inspection mode with the second inspection mode
