Steering Angle Sensor

The steering angle sensor requires an offset adjustment after the sensor has been replaced, coded or after repairs to the steering or suspension system. The offset adjustment informs the steering angle sensor processor of the straight ahead position of the front wheels.

The adjustment is performed by completing the Test Module found in Service Functions. Once the adjustment is complete the sensor sends an identification number over the CAN bus to the DSC control unit. The ID provides confirmation that the steering angle sensor is coded and has successfully completed the adjustment procedure.
