Purpose, Function
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.
Fail-safe
Function not equipped.
Barometric Pressure (Baro) Sensor
Purpose/Function
Detects the BARO as basic information for mainly determining the fuel injection
amount.
Detects the BARO and inputs it to the PCM as a BARO signal.
Construction
Built into the PCM.
A piezoelectric element has been adopted for detecting th ...
Differential [Fw6 A EL, Fw6 Ax EL]
Purpose/Function
The differential absorbs the difference in the rotation speed between the
left and right driving wheels so that the vehicle drives smoothly when differences
occur due to cornering or driving on rough roads.
Construction
The differential consists of the ring ...
