Description and operation
Description

The sensor used is a thermistor (NTC) in which resistance changes with temperature variation.

When the TCM supplies power to sensor, the sensor output value changes depending on ATF temperature.

Oil temperature sensor is integrated with E module.

Repair procedures Removal and Installation Engine Room Front Under Cover. 1. Remove the engine room front under cover (A). Tightening torque : 7.8 - 11.8 N·m (0.8 - 1.2 kgf·m, 5.8 - 8.7 lb·ft) 2. Install in the reverse order of removal. Engine Room Rear Under Cover.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Electric Power Steering

Description and operation Description EPS (Electric power steering, Column assist type) system is an engine operation independent steering system that uses an electric motor to assist the steering force. EPS control module controls the motor operation based on input signals from torque sensor and steering angle sensor via CAN (Controller Area Network), resulting in a more precise and timely control of steering assist thatn conventional engine-driven hydraulic systems.
