Power Steering Belts

In your Subaru, power steering reduces your effort in turning the steering wheel. It does so by utilizing a power source, usually a motor, to augment your steering wheel inputs. This helps lessen your physical exertion when you turn wheels at typical speeds, and also when stopping or driving slowly. Without it, turning your steering wheel becomes extremely difficult especially when stationary.

How Does Subaru Electric Power Steering Work?

Electric power steering uses an array of sensors, control units, and an electric motor. In your car’s steering column, a torque sensor measures the force you apply while steering. This sensor, plus the speed and steering angle sensors, send data to a control module. The module then determines the extent, distance, and direction to which the electric motor must turn your car’s wheels.
