When the steering system warning light turns yellow, it indicates a partial failure in the steering system. Additional information: Below is a detailed introduction to the automotive power steering system: 1. Function: It uses the power generated by an electric motor to assist the driver in steering. The system directly provides steering assistance through an electric power motor, eliminating the need for components such as a hydraulic power steering pump, hoses, hydraulic fluid, drive belts, and pulleys mounted on the engine, thereby saving energy and protecting the environment. 2. Components: The automotive power steering system can improve vehicle stability. When the vehicle shows signs of instability, the electronic power steering system can independently brake each wheel and coordinate with the engine management system to ensure driving safety. The automotive power steering system mainly consists of a speed sensor, reduction mechanism, torque sensor, electric motor, and electronic control unit.
