10. SAS (Steering Angle Sensor) Calibration

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 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

NOTE: AUTEL accepts no responsibility for any accident or

injury arising from servicing the SAS system. When
interpreting DTCs retrieved from the vehicle, always follow
the manufacturer’s recommendation for repair.

NOTE: All software screens shown in this manual are
