Kia Sorento: Steering Angle Sensor
The Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) is installed in MDPS (Motor Driven Power
Steering) and it sends messages to HECU through CAN communication line.
The SAS is used to determine turning direction and speed of the steering
wheel.
The HECU uses the signals from the SAS when performing ESC-related calculations.
Components (Steering Angle Sensor, Torque Sensor, Failsafe relay, etc.)

and the steering column. EPS unit assembly must not be disassemble to be inspected.
