Active Front Steering Control Unit
The active front steering control unit is located in the right footwell and screwed down to the floorpan. The control unit is protected by a kickplate housing. See Fig 1.
The kickplate housing incorporates a pin for connecting the shielding for the 3 phases of the active front steering actuating unit. The control unit is integrated in the vehicle electrical system via the PTCAN and the F-CAN. The active front steering control unit calculates the signals for activating the active front steering actuating unit from the various input signals.
