Steering angle sensor problem
[align=left]Hello all
2002 B6 1.9 tdi Sport
My ESP and ABS lights came on, and the stealer said there was a fault with the steering angle sensor. I bought VAG-COM and a cable, replaced the sensor and reset the steering centre position following instructions posted here.
Unfortunately the warning lights persist and I'm now seeing some weird behaviour on VAG-COM.
Today, when I go into the ABS module I get a fault code "Sensor for steering angle, supply voltage terminal 30 " which won't clear.
I then went into meas block group 5 and in field 1 the correct steering angle is being reported and it changes in real time when the wheel is turned. However the rotation rate (with the wheel stationary) fluctuates between 0 and 1.5 degs/sec, the brake pressure between 0.65 and 1.3 bar and the transverse acceleration is reported as 0 to 0.9 m/s/s
When I go back to the fault codes screen there are none shown!!
When I leave the ABS module and then re-enter it I hear three beeps from the car, and a fault is showing "system function test activated" This code WILL clear.
When I exit the ABS module I hear a click from under the bonnet.
Can any experts shed any light on this strange stuff????
Any advice gratefully received, acted on and reported back here.
NB I have cross posted this on vwaudiforums. I hope that's not considered improper
