GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONT AXLE26-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M2260000100701
The front axle consists of front hub, wheel bearing,
knuckles and driveshafts, and has the following fea
-
tures:
•The wheel bearing incorporates magnetic
encoder for wheel speed sensing.
•The driveshaft incorporates EBJ-TJ type constant
velocity joint <4A9-CVT, 4A9-M/T (LS)>,
EBJ-ETJ type constant velocity joint <4A9-M/T
(VR)>, BJ-TJ type constant velocity joint <4G1>.
•The dynamic damper is mounted to reduce differ-
ential gear noise.
•The bracket assembly is mounted to reduce
torque steer. < 4G1>
•For environmental protection, a lead-free grease
is used on the joints.
EBJ(Eight Ball Fixed Joint):The use of the
smaller-sized eight balls inside the joint achieves
weight saving and compact size compared with a
BJ(Birfield Joint).
ETJ(Eco type Tripod Joint):This joint achieves
weight saving and compact size compared with a
TJ(Tripod Joint).

GENERAL INFORMATIONM2370000100862
Vehicle-speed sensitive electric power steering
(whole range type) has been adopted. This system
allows a light steering force during stationary steer
-
ing manoeuvre or low speed driving, and a moderate
steering force during medium or high speed driving.
For vehicles with this system, the electric power
steering-ECU controls the motor current according to
the vehicle speed and steering force of the steering
wheel.
CAN* communication has been adopted in order to
communicate with another ECUs for obtaining nec
-
essary information related to this control, achieving
wiring harness saving and secure data communica
-
tion.
NOTE: *: For more information about CAN (Control-
ler Area Network), refer to GROUP 54C, General
Information
P.54C-2.

ELECTRICAL PARTS AND FUNCTIONS
Parts nameDescription about function
SensorVehicle speed sensor (ABS-ECU)Sends the vehicle speed signal to the electric power
steering-ECU.
Torque sensorDetects a steering force, converts it into the voltage signal,
and then sends the signal to the electric power
steering-ECU.
ActuatorMotorGenerates assist torque by the steering operation to the
steering gear using the signals sent from the electric power
steering-ECU.
Electric power steering warning
lampWarns a driver of the system malfunction using the signal
sent from the electric power steering-ECU.
Electric power steering-ECUControl the actuator (motor) based on the signal sent from
sensor.
Controls the self-diagnostic fu nction and fail-safe function.
Controls diagnostic function (Compatible with M.U.T.-III).
