Notes On Replacing The Steering Angle Sensor - Vehicles Prior To '03 Model
A new steering angle sensor -C2- is installed as of the 2003 model (3-programme). This internally modified steering angle sensor, -C2-, differs
(externally) from the previous steering angle sensor, -C1-, in having a larger plug connection that is also located in a different position. New steering
angle sensor -C2-: axial plug connection (below steering shaft)/previous steering angle sensor -C1-: radial (lateral) plug connection.

When a replacement is required, new steering angle sensor -C2- can be retrofitted in place of the previous version, -C1-.
