Where is the steering angle sensor located?

[DelPresley]

The steering angle sensor is located beneath the steering column. It is used to detect the rotation angle and direction of the steering wheel. Whether the steering wheel is turned left or right, the steering angle sensor will detect it, enabling the vehicle's electronic control unit to issue correct steering commands. Its functions are: 1. To provide a basis for the vehicle's steering range; 2. To ensure the vehicle drives according to the driver's steering intentions. The steering angle sensor consists of: an optoelectronic coupling element and a perforated slot plate. The optoelectronic coupling element includes a light-emitting diode and a phototransistor, with the perforated slot plate positioned between them. When the steering wheel is turned, the perforated slot plate rotates accordingly.
