Steering Sensor

The steering sensor provides the PSCM  with information on the direction, speed and amount of force being applied to the steering wheel. The module uses this information to determine the amount of steering assist required. The sensor is a 5-volt dual analog sensor with an output voltage range of 0.25 volt to 4.75 volts. When the steering wheel is turned to the left, the left signal increases while the right signal decreases, likewise when the steering wheel is turned to the right, the right signal increases while the left signal decreases.
