Super useful and very thorough (start to finish tour thru the system). Only suggestion is that some of the details on the video are lost due to constantly moving the parts around. Could be improved by setting the object down while you discuss and point out the features. (Especially true on the electronics). Clearly this is the best video I've seen on the EPS system.

Yes, that's correct, people are using columns from a variety of cars as self-contained units for hot rodding. Not every column works this way, but a lot of them have a failsafe mode which works pretty well but doesn't have the function of varying steering assist based on road speed. These can operate without other inputs. Others have also built control boxes which allow you to change the level of steering assist with the twist of a potentiometer.

Thanks for the great video! Now I understand better why my racing friends are removing electric power steering - it has some slack and now I know where! Plus that friction on the motor gears. There are quite a few EPS systems used on resto-mods like this Toyota one or one from Opel (more popular swap in Europe). I personally did use Nissan one on my DeLorean build as I know the engineer responsible for it at Nissan. Newer EPS systems actually use signals from Angle Sensor but that is mostly for ADAS purposes (line correction etc). Another important stuff is that some EPS systems need vehicle speed signals to adjust power steering support. The older column will look for PWM signal, but newer for CAN frames from ABS (Wheel Speed Sensor). Thanks again! Long-time listener!

Incorrect. That tiny shaft IS TAKING all the torque of the input from the driver. What you're pointing out is the "backup plan" for when the torque sensing fails, you can then still transmit large forces through the steering column to steer the vehicle. Redundant systems are made this way so we don't just fail. Think Dad with his hands hovering around his baby just learning how to walk. Not necessary, but millimeters from disaster. Glad Dad was there :) I can explain the torque sensor better but I think it's not needed. It's pretty cool, is had differential for maximized signal strength. Love this engineering and your disassembly videos.

I have a Toyota Yaris from 2002 with an electrical steering assist The issue is that when I’m on lower gear (1, 2) I have trouble to do little steering but when I’m on higher gear (3 and above) with higher speeds it’s really easy to steer the wheels The thing is that when I must do turns, or for parking I must really use a lot of force to steer the wheels and it’s really annoying I really don’t know if it’s a normal behavior or not…
