STEERING ANGLE SENSOR CENTERING PROCEDURE
DESCRIPTION:
All 2006 MY Sonata vehicles are equipped with Electronic Stability Control (ESC). The ESC system contains a steering angle sensor, which measures
the amount and rate of steering wheel input. The steering angle sensor is used by the ESC to determine if brake or engine torque interventions should be
activated to help the driver.
The steering angle sensor requires calibration whenever the following occurs:
^
Steering Angle Sensor replacement
^
Steering rack removal
^
Steering column removal
This bulletin provides a procedure to recalibrate the steering angle sensor using the Hi-Scan Pro.
NOTE:
Before starting procedure, make sure vehicle has ESC. Look for button on dash.
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
1.
Vehicle alignment must meet the following requirements before steering angle calibration can be started.
^
Front wheels < +/- 1.0° from straight forward.
^
Steering wheel < +/- 5.0° from straight forward.
^
Roll the vehicle forward and backward on a flat level surface prior to calibration.
