  Steering Sensor Assembly, Sensor, Angle Sensor, Sensor Steering Rotation

• Description:

  This genuine Ford steering wheel position sensor, also called a steering angle or steering rotation sensor, reports the steering wheel's angle and rate of turn to the vehicle's stability and traction control systems on the 2011-2016 Ford Explorer, with shared fitment across Taurus, Flex and related Ford lines. Mounted at the base of the steering column around the shaft, it feeds precise angle data that the AdvanceTrac electronic stability control, ABS and power steering modules use to compare the driver's intended direction against actual vehicle motion. Owners usually need this sensor when the stability control, traction control, ABS or power steering warning lights illuminate together, when a fault code points to steering angle sensor performance or an implausible signal, or when the steering feels inconsistent after a column or clockspring repair. Cataloged by Ford as the steering wheel position sensor, it installs on the column and, like most angle sensors, requires a steering angle reset or calibration with a capable scan tool after fitting so the zero point matches straight-ahead travel. Inspect the clockspring and connector while the column is apart.

• Notes: Included with column housing. Included with switch housing.
