- Description
MDPS (Motor Driven Power Steering) system uses an electric motor to
assist the steering force and it is an engine operation independent
steering system.MDPS control module controls the motor operation
according to information received from the each sensor and CAN
(Controller Area Network), resulting in a more precise and timely
control of steering assist than conventional engine-driven hydraulic
systems.Components (Torque Sensor, Fail-safe relay, etc.) of the MDPS
system are located inside the steering column & MDPS unit assembly and
the steering column & MDPS unit assembly must not be disassemble to
