Module, Electric Power Steering (EPS): Description
This vehicle features an Electric Power Steering (EPS) system. The EPS module is located in a powerpack that contains the motor, module and worm drive on the steering gear assembly. Since the steering system is fully electric - rather than traditional hydraulic - all of the power assist is provided via an electric motor system. This improves fuel economy, since there is no parasitic loss from a power steering pump, and reduces steering system-generated noise, and allows optimal tuning of feedback to the driver.
For the removal of the EPS module and installation. Refer to GEAR, REMOVAL . Refer to GEAR, INSTALLATION .
