Steering Column Switch
E70, E71, E81, E82, E87, E90, E91, E92, E93
Introduction
For the first time on a BMW, the E87 steering column switch cluster (SZL) will optically record the steering angle and
the positions of the steering column stalks.
With a conventional steering column stalk the electrical contacts are mechanically switched and thus influence the
pressure points felt by the driver.
The benefit of optical monitoring is that it allows these pressure points to be more precisely defined. In other words,
optical monitoring greatly reduces the level of mechanical influence.

The steering column switch cluster (SZL) has the following tasks:
-
Measuring the steering angle and steering-angle speed
-
Picking up signals from controls in the multi-function steering wheel via coil springs
-
Picking up signals from the steering column stalks
-
Sending data as CAN messages on the BUS or via direct wires
-
Looping signals through (e.g. driver's airbag and horn)
