Where is the Torque Sensor on the Steering Wheel?
1 Answers
Location of the steering wheel torque sensor: Below the steering wheel, locate the power steering motor on the steering column. The motor usually has a small metal cover protecting it, with four wires (and a connector) attached—this is the power steering torque sensor. Remove the small metal cover to see it. Below is relevant information: 1. Position of the car steering wheel: Determined by each country's traffic rules and unrelated to the type of vehicle. If the country or region drives on the left, the steering wheel is on the right; if it drives on the right, the steering wheel is on the left. 2. Evolution of steering wheel position: Initially, when Karl Benz invented the car, the steering wheel was centered. However, based on ergonomic principles, over 90% of people are right-handed. To ensure accurate and safe use of the gearshift and brakes, designers naturally placed the driver's seat on the right.
