I've had an issue with the steering angle sensor with my car ever since I had some stupidity come before my common sense. That issue was overdue as I got to check up the issue and I was not expecting this big f#*k I made, well I decided to investigate and guess what? I found the issue. This video is helpful if you are experiencing the same issue as I did with the fault code: "00778: Steering angle sensor (G85) not initialised".

Man, this was a PERFECT tutorial. I got mine done in no time. Thanks for making this, I’d have never figured it out myself.

Great video, I'm having the same issue with the angle sensor. I will try to calibrate it and then give feedback.

Okay thank you, please do let me know if it works

I have similar issue, it talks to module, but it constantly shows angle of 0 degrees, no matter the position of the wheel. I will change it once it arrives and hopefully it will fix the issue

Mine had the same issue and it would say "not initialized", tried to calibrate it with VCDS but it just showed 0,00° and I just decided to just change it and it worked.

My steering wheel is stiff an shows the light too will it fix the stiffness after i change this part?

Yes it probably will fix it, but what led to the steering light warning coming on? Getting to know what led to the fault will likely pinpoint the issue.

Where do you buy sensor in the US.

@OverideZA Ай бұрын

I'm not sure in the US, I'm in South Africa.

Try using a mirror, selfie camera to look in the hole where you need to put in the screwdriver and push it in the swerve it to the side it'll then pop out

Is this only if your steering wheel can't turn both left or right

@OverideZA Ай бұрын

It can be for many things, it could also be for when your steering is out by some degrees, it could also be for when your have maybe a faulty clock spring.

Will this fix that buttons on the steering wheel not working and the horn ?

@OverideZA 13 күн бұрын

No this will not fix it, the only helps for steering assist. The buttons not work is probably caused by the clock spring. Replace it then I'm certain the buttons will work if it's the issue.

@@OverideZA I am trying to figure out what it is because I don’t have an airbag light on, and when I connect the scanner it says steering angle sensor bad. Should I replace it as well?

@@youngarch1811 yes you can replace it since the scanner says the steering angle sensor is faulty.
