Borrego 4WD V6-3.8L (2009)
Steering Angle Sensor: Description and Operation
Description
Steering Wheel Angle Sensor detects rotating direction of the vehicle. Rotating direction detected by the sensor is communicated with HECU as CAN
signal involving information about the angle through CAN communication line.
HECU detects speed of the steering wheel handling and the angle with this CAN signal. HECU also uses this signal as the input signal to control
anti-roll.
Specification
Circuit Diagram
Calibration (Setting up the zero angle)
Steering Wheel Angle Sensor of a absolute angle type (CAN type) measures the angle under the standard of the zero angle set.
Calibration must be performed as following cases.
-
Replacement of the Steering Wheel Angle Speed Sensor
-
Replacement or repair of the Steering column
-
Detection of DTC codes (C1260, C1261)
-
Replacement of the longitudinal G sensor
-
Replacement of HECU
Calibration procedure
Perform wheel alignment and stand the steering wheel in a line within ±5°error.
