Calibrating steering angle sensor
WARNING
Malfunctions in the PSM control range if the steering angle sensor is not calibrated or is calibrated
incorrectly!
Calibrate the steering angle sensor with the wheels in straight−ahead position!
•
Note
•
A steering angle sensor is attached to the steering column/steering shaft for the PSM (Porsche
Stability Management)! PSM is standard in the 911 Turbo (996)!
•
The steering angle sensor supplies information about the slip angle of the front wheels to the PSM
control module (intention of driver in relation to direction of travel)!
Steering angle sensor position
The steering angle sensor has no defined zero position when new. The position for "straight ahead" direction
of travel must be programmed. This is done by calibrating with the Porsche System Tester 2 with the wheels
in straight−ahead position.
The steering angle sensor must be calibrated after:
1. A new steering angle sensor has been
installed,
2. The PSM control device has been
exchanged,
3.
