Steering Angle Sensor Centering

The external column mounted 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 external column mounted steering angle sensor centering procedure can be completed with a scan tool using the following steps:

1. Using the steering wheel, align the front wheels forward.
2. Apply the parking brake, or set the transmission in the P position.
3. Install the scan tool to the data link connector.
4. Ignition ON, engine OFF
5. Select Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Reset in the Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module Configuration/Reset Functions list.
6. Follow the scan tool directions to complete the learn procedure.
7. Select Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Learn in the Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module Configuration/Reset Functions list.
8. Follow the scan tool directions to complete the learn procedure.
9. Select Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Learn in the EBCM Configuration/Reset Functions list.
10. Follow the scan tool directions to complete the learn procedure.
11. Clear any DTCs that may be set.
12. If equipped with electric power steering (EPS), perform the Software Endstop Learning. Refer to Power Steering Control Module Calibration (Power Steering Control Module Calibration).
