What is steering Angle Sensor ?

The steering angle sensor (SAS) is a critical part of the ESC system that measures the steering wheel position angle and rate of turn. A scan tool can be used to obtain this data in degrees. The SAS is located in a sensor cluster in the steering column. The cluster always has more than one steering position sensor for redundancy and to confirm data. The ESC module must receive two signals to confirm the steering wheel position. These signals are often out of phase with each other.

How to reset or recalibrate Steering  Angle Sensor (SAS)?

Self-Calibration:
Some newer vehiles can auto calibration by having the wheel turned from lock to lock and then centered and cyling the key.
