steering fluid flow. The SSPS control module can change
the amount of current flowing through the EVO actuator by
varying the output duty cycle. If the EVO actuator is dis-
connected, the pintle will be pulled out of the orifice for
maximum power steering assist.
The SSPS control module has the ability to detect faults
in the steering wheel rotation sensor, the EVO actuator, or
the circuitry to those components. Any default detected
will cause the power steering assist to remain at maximum
with the pintle in its normally retracted position for all
speeds.
When the system is operating normally, increasing the ve-
hicle speed will decrease power steering assist, allowing
the driver to have improved road feel and directional stabil-
ity. When sudden steering wheel turns are made, as in
evasive maneuvers, they are detected by the SSPS con-trol module through the steering wheel rotation sensor.
When detected, the SSPS control module reduces current
to the EVO actuator, allowing greater power steering as-
sist.
SSPS (Speed Sensitive Power Steering) is to control pow-
er steering effort properly according to varying conditions
for both convenience and safety.
At low speed or standstill, power steering effort becomes
light to provide easy steering. On the contrary, at high
speed, power steering effort becomes heavy to provide
stable steering.
SSPS offered to LACETTI is EVO (Electric Variable Ori-
fice) type, which controls steering effort by modulating
pressurized fluid supply to the steering unit from the power
steering pump.
Steering wheel rotation sensor is installed at the bottom of
the steering column.
This sensor detects steering wheel rotation which is used
to calculate the angle speed of the steering wheel by
SSPS module.
If the angle speed was big enough for intervention into nor-mal steering force control during high vehicle speed, which
means a driver made an evasive steering maneuver to
avoid an accident, SSPS module would supply enough
steering support.
The sensor consists of a variable resistor.

Checking procedure is as follows;
1. Remove SSPS connector2. Turn the ignition ON
3. Try to measure 5V across A and C terminals. If you
fail, it might be A, C wiring open or short, or SSPS
module malfunction.
4. Check if B+ and B– are supplied to terminal
8"
and
10" respectively.

The control module is installed on the right side of the au-
dio and can be accessible after the glove box is removed.
It receives signals from the vehicle speed sensor and the
steering wheel rotation sensor and processes them to de-
cide proper fluid flow through the actuator.
It also has a self–diagnosis. If it detects any malfunction,
it starts default mode, which is basically actuator full open
for light steering effort.

CAUTION : Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool
or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable will help
prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted.
