6.7 Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) Service
Steering Angle Sensor Calibration permanently stores the current steering wheel position
as the straight-ahead position in the steering angle sensor EEPROM. Therefore, the front
wheels and the steering wheel must be set exactly to the straight-ahead position before
calibration. In addition, the vehicle identification number (VIN) is also read from the
instrument cluster and stored permanently in the steering angle sensor EEPROM. On
successful completion of calibration, the steering angle sensor fault memory is
automatically cleared.
Calibration must always be carried out after the following operations:
Steering wheel replacement
Steering angle sensor replacement
Any maintenance that involves opening the connector hub from the steering angle
sensor to the column
Any maintenance or repair work on the steering linkage, steering gear or other
related mechanism
Wheel alignment or wheel track adjustment
Accident repairs where damage to the steering angle sensor or assembly, or any
part of the steering system may have occurred
