Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Precautions in Sensor Calibration
Steering angle sensor transmits the absolute steering angle value calculated with the steering neutral position (calibration point) required by ESP® control module.
Traction control system and stability control system use this set of data.
When the following operation is done, calibration should be performed since the original calibration points are deleted.
- Power is not supplied to steering angle sensor. (battery and/or fuse is removed.)
- Steering angle sensor is replaced.
- Power is not supplied to ESP® control module. (battery, fuse and/or connector is removed.)
- ESP® hydraulic unit/control module assembly is replaced.
Perform sensor calibration according to SENSOR CALIBRATION OF ESP® .
