Initialise steering-angle sensor
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2013 Porsche 911, 2012 Porsche 911, 2011 Porsche 911, 2010 Porsche 911, and 2009 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Turn wheels to straight-ahead position.
- Start engine.
- From the straight-ahead position, turn steering wheel approx. 20° to the left and 20° to the right (past straight-ahead position).
- Drive the vehicle straight ahead for at least three seconds at a speed above 6 km/h (3.7 mph).
After successful initialisation, the stored fault code is erased from the fault memory. The PSM indicator light in the instrument cluster goes out.
After initialisation has been completed, the battery must not be disconnected, the relevant fuse must not be removed and there must not be undervoltage. Otherwise, initialisation will have to be carried out again.
