The steering angle sensor does not require a centering often. Centering of the steering angle sensor might be required after certain service procedures are performed. Some of these procedures are as follows:
• | Electronic brake control module (EBCM) replacement |
• | Steering angle sensor replacement |
• | Steering gear replacement |
• | Steering column replacement |
• | Collision or other physical damage |
The steering angle sensor centering procedure can be completed with a scan tool using the following steps:
- Using the steering wheel, align the front wheels forward.
- Apply the parking brake, or set the transmission in the P position.
- Install the scan tool to the data link connector.
- Ignition ON, engine OFF
- Select Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Learn in the Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module Control Functions list.
- Follow the scan tool directions to complete the learn procedure.
- Select Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Learn in the EBCM Configuration/Reset Functions list.
- Follow the scan tool directions to complete the learn procedure.
- Clear any DTCs that may be set.
