The steering angle sensor outputs the steering angle and steering angle reference point during the period which the EPS control module performs initial learning (approx. 1 min period).
Construction
The steering angle sensor is installed to the clock spring.
Consists of the gear which rotates together with the steering (magnet) and the magnetic sensor.

Operation
By the rotation of the gear (magnet) corresponding to the steering operation, the magnetic sensor output value changes.
The steering angle sensor outputs the magnetic sensor output to the start stop unit.
