This thing basically takes the signal from your steering wheel – when you turn it – and translates that into actual movement of the wheels. It uses an electric motor to provide the power to turn the wheels instead of relying on hydraulics like older systems. It's got sensors that constantly monitor how much you’re turning the wheel, at what speed, and even things like road conditions to give you the right amount of assistance. Some units also handle things like variable assist – meaning the steering feels lighter at low speeds for parking and heavier at highway speeds.
It’s a core part of your steering system. Think of it like the brains behind the operation. It’s what actually makes the wheels turn when you move the steering wheel. It works alongside other components like the steering column, tie rods, and ball joints, but this is the component providing the muscle, so to speak. It replaces what a traditional hydraulic power steering pump and rack would do, all in one unit.
It's important because it directly affects your ability to control the vehicle. A failing gearbox will cause all sorts of issues – hard steering, wandering, or even complete loss of steering control. It acts like a shield between you and the road imperfections. You’ll notice if it’s going bad, usually with increasingly difficult steering, or maybe a grinding or whining noise when you turn the wheel. It’s a safety – critical component, so it’s definitely something you want to keep in good working order. We carry a pretty good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and we can help you find the right one for your specific vehicle.
