When the turn signal switch is pressed, how does INTELLITURN know which direction the vehicle is pointed, North, South, East, West, or somewhere in between?
It actually does not know its relative position to the earth, but it does not need to know. All that is needed to know is that when the driver pressed the turn signal lever, then that moment and the vehicle’s straight-ahead position is established. All turn related information is computed based upon that established beginning position.
