Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information






Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information SAS-C008F44

Condition




The Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) is located in the Steering Wheel Module (SWM) from which it is supplied with power. It is however only the Steering Angle Sensor which communicates on the Control Area Network (CAN).
The Steering wheel angle sensor module (SAS) contains 2 x processors that operate together. The processors receive information about steering wheel angle, steering direction, and steering angle speed from the steering wheel angle sensor (SAS) and then compare the information with each other. The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the steering wheel angle sensor module (SAS) registers that the information is incorrect in any way.
The trouble code may be diagnosed when the ignition is on and the angle sensor is initiated. The sensor is initiated by the steering wheel being turned by more than 4.5° in either direction.
