@@speedkar99 thanks for cutting it to pieces so l don't have to. I can see a lot of different uses for this setup other than steering a car that will come in very handy.
@@speedkar99 To me the quirky part is the twist you seem to always add referance to some relatives clothing item and also specilty tools = angle grinder. Very nice fun addition!
thank you for creating educational content that’s very approachable and beginner-friendly, while also not feeling condescending. as a car enthusiast who is in no way a mechanic; i appreciate you.
You are amongst the very best few automotive video producers on You Tube. My guess is you have an engineering background as well as being a mechanic. I am grateful for the time you put into these educational videos.
This explanation is really good, but think of how talented the people were that designed that steering and made it work flawlessly. Kudos to them and their ingenuity.
I'm kind of a tinkerer. There are multiple projects I've wanted to make that have been beyond my price range due to the cost of parts. Yesterday it occurred to me to see if I could use parts from junked cars. You helped me see it's totally possible. Thank you!
My 2020 RAV4 has this electric assist. I really like it! So smooth, center's real well, no pump, hoses, fluid and valves in the rack. Oh ya, no pump whine at full turn lock! Thank you for this video!
I'm working in the automotive industry, especially in the EPS electronics R&D field. The way you opened the PCB at 9:25 simply brought tears to my eyes 😂😂😂😂😂
hi.. pls help me.. my car has a electric power steering.. i start my car in a morning my steering wheel is very tight. in two or three minutes its going back to normal.. what is the reason..??
Thanks for taking time to dissect the system for everyone. Looking at the substantial motor armature I see why this system tends to damp rack movement. Good for passenger cars and trucks.
Been subbed since the Toyota/Lexus programming videos. Thanks for the great content, always something new to learn. This looks like a well-made unit also.
Thanks. I kinda drifted away from the how to videos as the how stuff works videos and mechanical reviews have caught on and become more interesting since there isn't too much like that out there.
This reminds me of citroen's hydraulic diravi steering. There was no physical linkage too, a kind of physical backup linkage would apply only in the case the hydraulic system would fail. It was very comfortable for the time it has been built but it was very soft and did give allmost no feedback from wheels to steering wheel.
speedkar99 what’s going on that ye car must be scrapped -crash damage ? The components are top quality- Seems recycling components isn’t a thing where you are
great breakdown. those ball drive has me thinking would make great cnc drive.. can only get this info when someone does these breakdowns. thumbs up! and great little jokes.
Pretty cool. The *stator* is the field frame, and in this case has permanent magnets. It is a six pole machine. The armature (where power conversion takes place) is the part that rotates, in this case.
Just want to give props: straight, to the point, without any long winded diatribe on the history or power steering or how Yakumi Honda married his wife.......great job! (I hate guys that drone on and on about superfluous crap lol)
Fascinating. It sounds like manual steering will still work if power to the motor suddenly fails, correct? I love the idea of losing the power steering hydraulics, it will save weight and volume inside the engine compartment.
Your explanations are still pretty good and if you really wanted to, you could send the logic board for the steering controller to Big Clive but he may or may not want to reverse engineer it.
absolutely perfect, i've never seen one of these taken apart to such an extent before. ¿Why do you think they used spiral balls for the translation instead of a fixed bushing?, ¿is it to make the rack able to move the motor more easily in case of failure?, or to reduce friction?
I think the torque sensor's metal ring goes up and down relative to left-right motion of the steering wheel. In order to know the driver's input is left or right and EPS module turn the motor clockwise or anticlockwise.
Sheesh, everything from a full mechanical disassembly to a complete view of the underlying electronics. Thanks again for a great video!
Thanks. Gotta understand the whole system to appreciate how it works

@@speedkar99 it's awesome to see I get my special tools from the same place you do!
My car gives code 71 01 engine angle sensor, sin/cos neutral point, could it be that the black 3-pin sensor is not working?
I love this guy because he puts work into his explanations.
Also his nonchalant jokes about his brothers hat or toothbrush.
Very underrated
Thanks, glad you appreciate my style

I got to get me one of those special bits too. ;)
"So I'm going to use my special security bit to take these off..." *Angle grinder fires up*
Yep, that's my special bit!
@@speedkar99 I knew it was coming but I still laughed like a hyena anyways
Just wanted to drop a thank you. You give the absolute best expalination of how systems work, with a great addition of humor and quirkiness!

Rapid fire details. I love it.
Everything I ever learned about how things work has come from taking things apart. The best way to learn.
This guy is amazing! Also, I've started using a toothbrush to point to everything while I teach. It's been very effective.
Thanks. Sure it's a good habit

It sure is mechanically simplier and more reliable. But it devoids it of steering feel
And now I put it back together..........great video, great explanations.
I feel like I've been to college on EPS in 10 minutes. Thanks!
#3. Cut off wheel is such a wonderful tool.
You are a very good teacher straight talking and no if and but could listen to you all day thanks
I wish all tech. videos were as clear and fast and accurate as yours is. Well done.
Thanks
You seriously deserve more subscribers, great job as always
Bravo ! Very well done. I thought I had seen enough steering box's to last a life time. I was wrong.

Hello, can you tell me what would be ideal EPS gear for electric vehicle ? Is it ball screw or worm gear?
Thanks for taking time to dissect the system for everyone. Looking at the substantial motor armature I see why this system tends to damp rack movement. Good for passenger cars and trucks.
0:17 That socket, by the pinion looks like an emoji jumping around ! Brilliant video, easy to understand and to the point. Subbed and binge watching !
that special security tool!!! Soooo SATISFYING!!!
Gotta love my grinder
Honda and Mazda do great Electric Power Steering, so much feedback for EPS.
It has to do with their suspension and tire tuning
Yep own a first gen mazda 3 can't tell the difference between that and mechanical sometimes lol
WELL DONE SIR , YOU MADE IT EVEN A CHILD CAN UNDERSTAND... GOOD JOB ...
Great video explanation. Answers a lot of questions. The real trick is putting that thing back together. Thanks!
Dude, Love how you went into the electronics of it. Cheers.
I just love your complete set of obscure removal tools; great video
Love the grinder too
Great detailed description! This guy is really good!
Thanks and glad you learned something new
Nice teardown of an electric steering rack. Thanks
I love the toothbrush! 😂Excellent job!!! You are very smart AND a clear teacher!
Thanks a lot for bringing that science to us !
Was wondering since a lot of time how the torque could be measured ^^
You deserve more subscribers 👏
Hopefully someday. Share with your network
Thanks for this. Love videos like this and learning. Finally started investing a bunch of tools to start. Next goal is to invest in some space
That was a great explanation of the EPS system! Thanks. Unfortunately I just keep seeing one heck of a linear actuator. :)
Thanks!
phenominal teaching. very grateful to you. regards.
Superbly ordered and comprehensive
Thanks for your exalent video! Wish I had your video's 60 years ago? Keep it up!
Definitely no electric steering racks 60 years ago! But yeah every aspiring mechanic should be able to see these videos
5:50 Even he’s just as amazed as we are 😲
Great video as always!
Great video. Full of info and concise. Loved the parts with the fancy special tools. Now waiting for the reassembling tutorial ;-)
No thanks
Another good video you show us how things work in our car, thank you.
You are welcome
I subscribed your channel when u hold the grinder. Absolutely technology is beautiful from inside
Very thorough job sir. You covered it all.
Thanks
great video buddy
im getting a job because of your teaching realy apreciate the help
Wow, what kind of job? Glad I could help
Just got my first vehicle with electric power steering and I like it so far. The steering feel is really good and so quiet.
😂😂😂 I love that power snap ring tool! Looking forward to every video that you put up my man!💯👍
Bravo! Excellent video! Now I understand why my new OEM steering rack & pinion was so expensive...😫
Thanks! Yep they sure cost alot
I like your security bits.
I couldn't get by with these security bits on a BMW engine I'm working on
Jeeze. You've got so many specialty tools.
Electromechanical genius! Loved the explanation of the torque sensing system.

You did a great job explaining this. Thanks
My BS degree EE didn't cover many of these issues. Many Thanks. Bob
This isn't EE ...
Love that special security bit @ 5:45=))
That was awesome, I love how you dismantled every part, great video! 👍
Thanks
very good explanation, mechanical and electronics side. very satisfied. keep up the good job.
Thanks for your elaborate of the EPS systems. I think my 2012 highlander has this system . I prefer the hydraulic ones.
Very educational, thank you.
You welcome

This still had the physical linkage....
It’s such a shame destroying the latest technology comparatively.At least you documented it !
🤘🇬🇧
Destroying what would have been crushed as a scrap car?? I'm doing a favor here...

I always enjoy the remarks about the wife's toothbrush or the brother's T-shirt, but I had a good laugh this time around about the security screw bit.
Hey it's all using what I can!
Keep up the good job mate!
Your brother's clothes though 🤣 🤣 always cracking me up!
Haha
Very well done. Factual and concise
Thank you very much, now I know how it works and how to dissemble it, could you please make another video on reassemble?
🤣
Superb! We hope your future videos will be full of new technological things. Good luck!
Great!! Now that I know how it works , I'm gonna be forced to explain it to someone, ah man... thanks a lot. Awesome video by the way!!!
Teaching others helps you to remember yourself

Can you tell me the most important points to cnect it with patary
Hello sir, were still waiting for our Core rack.
I scrapped it
You sir just earned a new subscriber.
Pretty cool. The *stator* is the field frame, and in this case has permanent magnets. It is a six pole machine. The armature (where power conversion takes place) is the part that rotates, in this case.

I learn again! Great job as usual. Thanks for sharing. 👉👊
Thanks I'm glad it was easy to understand
Very cool explanation!
Thanks
Brilliant engineering
Fascinating. It sounds like manual steering will still work if power to the motor suddenly fails, correct? I love the idea of losing the power steering hydraulics, it will save weight and volume inside the engine compartment.
They could probably save even more weight by using a brushless motor and it should last longer too.
Yes manual steering still has to move the column and rack. The motor is only giving you assist to make it easier.
Seems like that Honda rack was pretty well built. You had to saw that sh!t apart.
It sure was. In fact most of the racks I've taken apart we're pretty sealed up, see my previous videos.
Your explanations are still pretty good and if you really wanted to, you could send the logic board for the steering controller to Big Clive but he may or may not want to reverse engineer it.
very clear view , thank you
You are welcome
Would love to see a mechanical review of a 09-12 rav4 v6/awd model. This is great content, keep it up.
absolutely perfect, i've never seen one of these taken apart to such an extent before. ¿Why do you think they used spiral balls for the translation instead of a fixed bushing?, ¿is it to make the rack able to move the motor more easily in case of failure?, or to reduce friction?
Prescise and reliable positioning.
I've seen the Chevy Cruze rack
...it has a belt driven rack!
@@speedkar99 I'd love to see vw mk5 electric rack, as it seems it has a motor spinning all the time at certain rpm
God damn bro I think you're a little too smart! Impressive AF ❤️ video
Glad you learned something
Fantastic ...thank you. Is the motor actually AC?
No it's DC
Nice broo. Good video description description man🗺🤳🏼
Thanks
So complete guy thank you
You are welcome
Thank You
Awesome video, keep doing this, you are awesome
Sure will. Gonna tear apart the engine soon
@@speedkar99 Awesome 😎 I am waiting
Great video. I wish we could apply your special security bit to auto execs who replaced hydraulic with electric.
Why though? No more leaks
@@speedkar99 I find electric steering to be numb & prefer the feel of hydraulic. You are right, no leaks.
I think the torque sensor's metal ring goes up and down relative to left-right motion of the steering wheel. In order to know the driver's input is left or right and EPS module turn the motor clockwise or anticlockwise.
Yes, and with two sensors, the computer can compare one to the other as a fail safe. Much like throttle control, two parallel inputs.
Yes and there's two coils inside the Sensor oppositely wound
Very good information thank you.
so well made ,amazing
