In case of ELECTRIC Power Steering - YES it will steer! For an ELECTRIC power steering you can still steer the wheel even if the assisting motor doesn't work. The electric motor basically just assists the motion of the rack by adding to the force that the driver applies using the steering wheel. Thus, if the motor fails, the only difference would be that the driver would require higher driving effort (Torque and thus in turn force required to turn the steering wheel) than what is required in the normal the condition when the electric power steering functions perfectly well. In case of HYDRAULIC Power Steering - NO it will not steer! Hydraulic power steering requires the engine to be running in order to keep the hydraulic pump running. If the engine is not running, the pump doesn't work as well. This is because the pump is directly connected to the engine for its input power (generally using a belt drive). If the pump is not running, the hydraulic pressure due to the blocked hydraulic fluid which cannot be circulated stops the motion of the steering rack and hence locks it. I hope you got your answer. Get back to me anytime you need to discuss this further.
@@el6285 no, that is what deals with your Delta P (Change in position) and what makes steering spaz out when it is triggered to have a seizure. hydraulic (the safer and better option) is purely mechanical, only downside is you need to seal check every so often, but if you are competent you will not have it fail even after a crash.
hey buddy, this an excellent demo. well done..but my question is, just by the look at any vehicle how do we know that this is hydraulic or electric? Thanks
Dear, please be noted that, the electric motor is assisted to rotate the steering colum in Nissan leaf 2014, please check and do necessary amendments to your vedio.
Hello, my father has a 2009 nissan altima hybrid and for a while now its been hard to steer requiring some effort to turn. Is it because the electric motor has failed or could it be something else? Thanks
I change my battery in my 2017 grand cherokee jeep and my power steering wheel get hard to turn when I drive for 15 minutes can someone tell me what to do

This FAIL-SAFE operation is the main advantage of ELECTRIC power steering over Hydraulic power steering.

In a motor, there are number of coils on stator which are energized one after the other, and thus keep pulling the rotor, which creates the rotation of motor. So the direction of energizing the coils defines direction of rotation of rotor. If the coils are energized in opposite manner than the direction of rotation of rotor will be opposite as well.
