Steering Effort Control Module (SECM) (vehicles equipped with active steering)
The SECM controls the steering wheel heating elements. The SECM uses the steering wheel temperature sensor to maintain the steering wheel temperature. The SECM is designed to remain on, heating the steering wheel and maintaining temperature until switched off using the FDIM or the ignition is turned off.
The SECM cannot be serviced independently. It is only replaced as an assembly with the steering wheel.
The SECM requires PMI when replaced.
