I finally got the steering angle sensor calibration to work. After being plagued with a slightly crooked steering wheel for the last two years.
I'm documenting this just in case I need a reminder in the future and other people who could use this.
1. Go for a drive and slowly find a safe spot to straighten your steering wheel as best as you can
2. While in park with the engine running, go to Control Unit then Steering Assistance (44)
3. Go to Live Data and search for Steering Angle Sensor, Angle, put in the security code.
4. Take note of what angle your reading is that so you'll know if the Calibration worked afterward.
5. Go back for Steering Assistance (44) and go to Basic Settings then Steering Angle Sensor
6. Start the calibration, from the center then your steering wheel all the way to the right, and hold for 5 seconds, then back to the center real quick and all the way to the left and hold for five seconds. Now back to the center and hold for 10 seconds.
7. Wait for about a minute and a half, and go ahead and stop the calibration by holding the stop button down.
8. Turn off the engine, remove key, open door, close the door.
9. Turn on the engine, and your dash should light up like a Christmas tree. With tire calibration and ECS. That's how you know it's working.
10. Go back to OBDEleven, scan the car for faults. Clear the faults.
11. Back to Steering Assistance (44) and go to Basic Settings then Steering Angle Sensor, initialization.
12. The steering wheel will move right and left then center in its own. After that the warnings in your dash should go away.
You are done! Go back to live Data and check the steering angle sensor, angle and it should be set the the center position you initially set it at.
It took me 2-3 years to really get the calibration to save. Hope this works out for you.

Hi,
Thank for that, I have found solution with this post - One mistake : Before initialisation and after calibration
the right procedure :
On Audi A84N Go to the "steering column" computer
1. Go for a drive and slowly find a safe spot to straighten your steering wheel as best as you can
2. While in park with the engine running, go to Control Unit then Steering Assistance (44) or "steering column". Go to Basic Settings then Steering Angle Sensor, initialization.
3. Go to Live Data and search for Steering Angle Sensor, Angle, put in the security code.
4. Take note of what angle your reading is that so you'll know if the Calibration worked afterward.
5. Go back for Steering Assistance (44) or "steering column" and go to Basic Settings then Steering Angle Sensor
6. Start the calibration, from the center then your steering wheel all the way to the right, and hold for 5 seconds, then back to the center real quick and all the way to the left and hold for five seconds. Now back to the center and hold for 10 seconds.
7. Wait for about a minute and a half, and go ahead and stop the calibration by holding the stop button down.
8. Turn off the engine, remove key, open door, close the door.
9. Turn on the engine, and your dash should light up like a Christmas tree. With tire calibration and ECS. That's how you know it's working.
10. Go back to OBDEleven, scan the car for faults. Clear the faults.
11. Go to the steering stops calibration step : steering column" / Basic settings / Sterring angle Sensor Zero calibration w/ steer. wheel scales / Start – Turn totally at right (bip) and totally at left (bip), center – If no bip - Turn totally at left (bip) and totally at right (bip) / Stop – back – Scan fault / Clear Fault

I am trying to correct mine right now, but I don't know what security code you are referencing. What do I need to enter as a security code?

I'm glad to hear someone has had success with this procedure. I think I've tried all three or four different versions and varieties of this and none of them have worked on my car too many variables in the procedure to know which one is correct,if someone has figured this out it would be helpful if it could be explained clearly how to complete it.

Did anyone try the one touch app that is essentially SAS calibration?

No I haven't heard of it, where did you find that located at?

Hi i am having an issue trying to remove the traction control light and tire pressure light. I have a fault code "00778" Steering angle sensor no or incorrect basic setting/adaptation. I am using obd11 pro account on a iOS device can someone please help on the steps needed to reset this please. I have tried everything but cant get it to work.
when i go into "44 Steering Assistance" what do i do from here?
Thank you really appreciate the help.

when i go into "44 Steering Assistance" what do i do from here? am96 : Assuming that you have selected "44 Steering Assistance" from the Control Units screen do this: - Scroll-down the screen and select Live data for the early steps in the procedures outlined in the thread
- In the search box, enter "angle" and select Steering angle sensor, angle as stated in instructions
- To implement the actual procedure go-back to the initial 44 Steering Assistance screen
- Scroll-down the screen and select Basic settings (it's the 2nd last option at the very end of the list)
- In the search box, enter "angle" and select Steering Angle Sensor, initialization.
- follow the rest of the instructions - I guess!!

Is this working?
I have a crooked steering wheel center, but I wen to check the wheel alignement and its 100% OK. the mechanic told me to check the steering wheel center.

Similar problem: I replaced the abs module with a new unit, coded it with previous module long coding. Did basic settings procedures as explained at Ross site. All worked well but still having an EPS error on dashboard and traction control light is on. I use an OBDeleven pro and scan shows below:
03 Brakes
System description: ESP MK60EC1
Software number: 1K0907379CD
Software version: 0120
Hardware number: 1K0907379AD
Hardware version: H35
Faults:
00778 - Steering angle sensor
static
priority - 2
frequencyCounter - 1
drivingCycle - 89
km-Mileage - 187437 km
Followed procedure above and confirm SAS is calibrated. Any idea why abs module still thinks it is not initialized? Car is a 2010 Golf MK6. Thanks

pita : Let's start this reply with a statement of the obvious - this car is a mk6 Golf (which has a PQ25/35 platform build) whereas this part of the forum is for mk7 Golfs (which have a MQB platform build). This means that whereas the Brake module on this car is MK60 - the focus of the ABS modules in this thread is MK100 series. All very different!! That said, from a diagnostic perspective, maybe the general approach for fault finding the "SAS" (which is called "G85" in the wiring diagram) applies also to the mk6? I don't know if this is true because I'm not familiar with the mk6. So and again as a general statement, calibration of G85 won't be successful unless there are no other errors on the module. G85 actually lives in the J500 module @ address hex44 ("Steering Assistant" module in OBD11 speak) - but calibration errors can appear in either the 03, or 44 module. So errors on the #44 module can also affect G85 calibration. My other suggestion is that you check that G85 is operating correctly because it ain't possible to calibrate the sensor if it's faulty. Again I'm not sure of the exact details on a mk6 Golf - but the output measurement for G85 is in Live data on OBD11 for the newer UDS/ODX modules on a mk7 (VCDS call their facility "Advance Measurement Values" - AMV).
The normal way to confirm that G85 is OK is to make sure that the wheels are pointing straight-forward. The resulting reading for G85 in live data should be zero degrees, or close to zero (usually less than -/+ 5 degrees)! Then move the steering wheel left and right - if G85 is working OK, you should see the reading values change - both positive and negative !
If you confirm that G85 is OK and if there are NO error codes in the hex44 module - maybe try running the calibration procedure in the hex44 module? This is a total guess!!

hello
I have a question. Is the study done with the Lipat car in the air or on the road?

hamudis : hmm........I don't understand the question!
The procedure described in this thread is about the steering angle sensor - which is the horizontal angle of the front tires relative to the line of the car body.
Why would lifting the car (I assume that you mean on a hoist) make a difference to the procedure and why would the car be placed on a hoist at all?

Hi,
I'm having a similar problem, did you get a response regarding your question about the 'Security Code'?
Thanks,
Nick

I've read your very helpful instructions for calibrating the steering angle sensor but don't know which security code to use as detailed in bulet point 3 of your instructions.
3. Go to Live Data and search for Steering Angle Sensor, Angle, put in the security code.
I have an Audi A3 1.4 TDi (75 BHP).
Thanks,
Nick
