Hyundai Elantra: Electric Power Steering / Description and Operation
EPS (Electric power steering, Column assist type) system uses
an electric motor to assist the steering force and it is an engine
operation independent steering system.
EPS 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 EPS
system are located inside the steering column & EPS unit assembly
and the steering column & EPS unit assembly must not be disassemble
to inspect or replace them.
