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
-
