Individual Functions Within The System
The steering gear assembly is primarily composed of power steering control module
, power steering torque sensor
and EPS motor
.
POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE
By receiving steering angle sensor signal, vehicle speed signal and torque sensor signal, the power steering control module calculates the current of motor drive according to the driving conditions. The power steering control module controls the EPS motor.
POWER STEERING TORQUE SENSOR
Power steering torque sensor detects the steering torque, and transmit the signal to power steering control module.
EPS MOTOR
The EPS motor provides the assist torque by the signal from power steering control module.
