Electric Power Steering (EPS) Module
DESCRIPTION
This vehicle features an 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 type of EPS system improves:
- Fuel economy since there is no parasitic loss from a power steering pump.
- Reduces steering system-generated noise.
- Allows for optimal tuning of feedback to the driver.
For the removal and installation of the EPS module. Refer to GEAR, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
