Steering Angle Sensor: Testing and Inspection

Memorizing the Torque Sensor Neutral Position
The torque sensor neutral position must be memorized whenever the gearbox, the motor, or the EPS control unit is replaced. Note that the torque sensor neutral position is not affected when erasing the DTC.

NOTE: The torque sensor is temperature sensitive. When memorizing the torque sensor neutral position, the ambient temperature must be above 68°F (20°C).





1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect the HDS to the DLC (data link connector) (A) located under the dash on the driver's side of the vehicle.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the EPS control unit. If it doesn't, troubleshoot the DLC circuit.
4. From the EPS menu, select MISCELLANEOUS TEST then TORQUE SENSOR LEARN and follow the screen prompts on the HDS.

NOTE: See the HDS Help menu for specific instructions.
