Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
The electronic brake control module (EBCM) monitors the Phase A, Phase B, Index and Analog signal circuits from steering angle sensor. The analog signal is used along with the index pulse to calibrate the steering angle sensor. The steering angle sensor position is then determined by Phase A and Phase B signals. The 2 input signals Phase A and Phase B are approximately 90 degrees out of phase. Once calibrated, the EBCM dynamically interprets the relationship between the Phase A and Phase B inputs, and determines the position of the steering wheel and the direction of the steering wheel rotation.

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
