Description

A steering wheel angle sensor is part number 961644 sensore-velangolarecontinen from Maserati. The electronic stability control (ESC) system of the car uses the measurement of the steering wheel’s angle of rotation to keep control of the vehicle when cornering and performing other maneuvers.

Usually found on the steering column, behind the steering wheel, is the steering wheel angle sensor. It is a tiny electronic device that measures the steering wheel’s rotational angle using a range of sensing technologies, including Hall effect sensors.

The ESC system’s steering wheel angle sensor is a crucial part. The steering wheel angle sensor is used by the ESC system to ascertain the driver’s intended direction of travel. The ESC system will apply individual brake applications to each wheel and/or reduce engine power if the vehicle detects that it is skidding or losing control.

Other automotive systems, like the traction control and anti-lock braking systems (ABS), also make use of the steering wheel angle sensor. These systems use the steering wheel angle sensor to calculate the vehicle’s direction of travel and to maximize efficiency.

This car part is suitable for the following models:
Ghibli (2014-2016), Ghibli (2014-2016) S, Ghibli (2014-2016) S Q4, Ghibli (2017+), Ghibli (2017+) S and 8 other model(s).
