Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) commands current from 0-3 amps to the variable effort steering (VES) actuator, depending on vehicle speed. At low speeds, 0 amps of current is commanded to the actuator and the steering gear receives full flow of power steering fluid causing less effort to steer vehicle. As vehicle speed increases, the amount of amps increases to the actuator causing fluid to bypass steering gear. This limits hydraulic assist to steering gear causing firm steering. The EBCM monitors and compares the VES Commanded Current and VES Feedback Current parameters to detect malfunctions in the VES System.
