METHOD FOR SECURING THE CONTROL OF THE REAR WHEELS OF A MOTOR VEHICLE PROVIDED WITH AN ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM

摘要

A method for securing control of rear wheels of a motor vehicle including an electric power steering system, the method including: measuring or calculating, using a motor-angle sensor, at least angular position of the electric power steering motor, and measuring or calculating, using a steering-wheel angle sensor, at least angular position of the steering wheel; calculating, using the motor-angle sensor, at least the angular position of the steering wheel; comparing at least the angular position of the steering wheel measured using the steering-wheel angle sensor to the angular position of the steering wheel measured using the motor-angle sensor; and transmitting an alarm signal if the result of the comparison is greater than a predetermined threshold value.
