Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Power Steering Control Module (PSCM) receives a vehicle speed message from the Transmission Control Module (TCM) w/auto trans, or Engine Control Module (ECM), w/manual trans, via a class 2 serial data circuit. The PSCM uses this vehicle speed message, and other inputs, to determine the desired amount of steering assist.
