Steering Wheel Sensor Module (SWSM)

The SWSM activates a hands On Sensor to determine if the driver has their hands on the steering wheel. The SWSM receives the sensor input then uses its own internal algorithm to determine if the hands are off or on the steering wheel. The SWSM transmits this determination in a signal to the CADM. The CADM uses this signal and/or the EPS torque sensing signal in order to determine the final hands on / hands off state.
