Description

The Steering Wheel Angle Sensor (SAS) is installed in the MDPS (Motor Driven Power Steering) and sends messages to the HECU via the CAN communication line. The SAS is used to detect the direction and speed of steering wheel rotation. The HECU uses signals from the SAS when performing calculations related to ESC. Components (steering wheel angle sensor, torque sensor, fail-safe relay, etc.) of the EPS system are located inside the steering column and the EPS assembly, and the steering column.
