2008 Mazda Tribute Steering Wheel Torque Sensor Replacement

Hope this helps. Please like and subscribe.
At idle and while driving with the steering wheel centered the steering wheel would twitching/shaking. Weirdest thing I have seen.
Replaced with part CL84-3F818-BA. The part is actually a ford part based off the ford escape. You can see it on the instruction at the end of the video.
Part numbers can be found here. I bought the genuine part as I didn't want something cheap.
Genuine Ford Part - amzn.to/3KWFSLA
Aftermarket - amzn.to/41xYokQ

Having the same issue with my 2011 ford escape, any idea if I just pull the fuse I can continue to drive it without power steering ? Read that somewhere on a forum, it's getting difficult to find the part... (been on a waiting list for months)

I am unsure on that question. I didn’t do that, but if you don’t mind driving without power steering then it shouldn’t matter. You can find the part on Amazon and elsewhere. Just put in the part number. Yeah Mazda places were saying out of stock too and double the price of aftermarket.

I had the code B2293 come up after reinstalling it. It refers to the airbag and the light is one. Do yiu have a remedy for that.

[@HangryAngler]

I don't have a personal remedy for that. My vehicle did not have any codes afterwards as seen in the video. Did you make sure to plug the connector back in for the steering wheel underneath after installing? Did you remove the negative to the battery before starting? I would reset the light via a reader and leave the negative off for a few hours. If that doesn't work they you can drain the ECM so it resets and relearns that may be your best bet. Again I didn't have that issue though.

Why not just change entire column

[@HangryAngler]

I guess you can do that, but just the replacement part is 200$. I can't assume an entire replacement would be cheap looks to be 700$-1200$ reman. If I can spend a few hours and replace the part and save 500$+ I am going to do it. Are there cheap ones out there?
