Steering Angle Sensor Module (SASM)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The SASM transmits steering wheel position, direction and speed of rotation information on the HS-CAN. The module is self-monitoring and capable of setting DTCs.
The SASM is self-calibrating and learns the vehicle straight-ahead position as the vehicle is driven. However, when a new SASM is installed, the module must be programmed with the correct vehicle information. For additional information on module programming, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION .
