    • Carefully re-do this troubleshooting guide steps.
    • If no problems were found with the circuits or connectors, replace Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair " procedure.

    NO 

    • Fault might be caused by incorrect calibration or SAS has been repaired/replaced and calibration has not been performed. Go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair " procedure.
    • Fault might be intermittent and caused either by poor contact in connectors or wiring harness, or it has been repaired and control module memory is not cleared yet. Thoroughly check terminal of battery, all connectors (and connections) for looseness, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, and/or damage.
