Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The motor generator unit (MGU) position sensor is used for determining motor control of the MGU. The motor control consists of the angular position and speed of the MGU. The rotor is bolted on the MGU shaft, the stator is bolted on the MGU bracket and the sensor circuit is soldered on the motor control board in the starter/generator control module (SGCM). The SGCM monitors the position sensor circuit to detect a converter error (loss of speed signal or tracking).
