Its one thing knowing how to use the computers, multimeters, scopes, etc. but its a whole other story knowing how its suppose to work. I've never heard of a stering wheel position sensor? If you don't know how something works and and every manufacturer has a different idea on how to make something function it can be a can of worms. You are one in a million with the skill and knowledge you have learned over the years. Most customers are going to pay with the 99% who can only change parts. Thanks

Fantastic job Kieth. Clear, concise and very well explained. Dorman crap is everywhere! they are the relabel kings! Fortunately at this point in time it was not the reason for the fault. I ounce had an 01 Audi A6 (when i was working at STS) that would keep coming back with a misfire because the coil pack was failing I think it was a Dorman i don't remember but it was crap. 3 times! i told the Service manager lets get an OEM coil, nope. But we did get a German made aftermarket part (northside imports in edison) that was a little more expensive and more a permanent fix than that crap that was installed the first 3 times. car never came back for that issue. BTW 99 maxima owner decided to just junk the car instead of fight with the shop that did the T-chains.

Great work Keith and nice diagnostic process. What seems like a simple process of separating the connector to isolate who's at fault, it's surprising that a lot of people wouldn't think of this. If you get the time when the module comes in, it would be nice to see the reprogramming of the module. It doesn't seem to be a lot of stuff out there for that. I do reprogramming at work, but it's pretty much for PLCs. Thanks again for shooting a video out of your busy schedule!!!

There's lots of books and videos out there Dexron3, but I couldn't say if they were any good or not and maybe a lot of them are outdated. I always say that if you're going to learn something such as PLC programming, sit down with the piece of equipment and play with it. Here's a few links to inexpensive PLCs where you can play with them and learn about programming. If you're really interested in learning about PLCs, the small price of these units is worth the education versus going to a technical school or university. www.kincoautomation.com/products/plc/?gclid=COnjzYjc59MCFZePswodtcULdQ velocio.net/?gclid=CKyYg73c59MCFU5LDQodms8Gjw plccompare.com/cheap-plcs/ www.allaboutcircuits.com/news/low-cost-programmable-logic-controllers-for-the-frugal-engineer/ Also, to get you started, do a search in KZbin for 'plc programming tutorial for beginners'. This will give you an idea of the instruction set that's common to the PLCs out there. Examples would include counters, timers, relational and comparison functions, PID loops, and a slew of other functions. Have a good one Dexron3 and good luck on your venture in PLC programming!

For anyone interested: The index pulse in a common digital incremental encoder (A+B+X) or position sensor is to provide a reference position by counting either direction from the Index. 1 phase (A) can tell you how far and how fast the encoder moves. 2 phases (A+B) can also tell if the sensor reverses rotation or direction. However, an A+B+Index sensor would have to be keyed to always match the steering wheel's true center and geared down to allow for more than one wheel rotation from center to either stop. In this case , the SAS module has 2 sensors. The digital pulse A+B side tells the brake controller the direction and velocity the steering wheel is turned while the other sensor must report the steering angle since the A+B side cannot provide absolute position. At 6:25 you can see the 3 lines for the other sensor in the SAS module and I suspect that the ABS module is ignoring one or more of those lines along with the A-Phase line so it can neither read the angle nor the velocity. Nice vid of something a bit different, Keith :)

@JOHNPHUFNAGEL7 жыл бұрын
Eddie you say that the sensor is not keyed but it does have a steering angle position measured in degrees. How is it calculated then? I diagnosed a sensor last week and fully turned to the left it read .25volt and about 75% it read 4.90volts then dropped to 0 the rest of the way til it his the stop it was about .10 volt. Do they have to be clocked to a certain position when replacing? I know the steering wheel needs to be locked in the center position to keep from breaking the clock spring is that also to calibrate the steering angle sensor? Thanks for the info on how it works
@EddieTheGrouch7 жыл бұрын
Good catch, John. I should have noted that I was referring to a general purpose rotary digital encoder. SAS modules should be clocked according to directions and the system reset/re-programmed as needed. In your case it sounds like you are measuring an analog sensor (variable resistor / potentiometer) that varies a 5v reference according to the angle. The voltage ramp should be smooth stop to stop if you have a full travel sensor. I've made corrections to my first comment and apologize for the confusion. I should avoid commenting while sleep walking in the future...
@JOHNPHUFNAGEL7 жыл бұрын
You are correct it is a variable resister, and the signal is smooth up til it get to about 75% then it drops to .10V. I have never personally changed one I just do diag work. I have looked at Mitchel and Alldata and I am unable to find anything on calibrating or reprogramming the sensor it basicly says remove and replace. I have the Verus and also do not see anything for the SAS only the YAW sensor. Thanks for the info

Great video Keith! I just diagnosed the same code last week on same vehicle. My problem was with the steering angle degrees it is the 5th wire over. With wheel turned all the way to the left I had .25 volts and as I turned the wheel it gradually went up till I got to 4.90volts and I was only about 75% of all the way to the right. I made about 1 more turn and it dropped to 0V and as I continued to turn I think it went up to maybe .10volts. I told the shop that he needs a new sensor, his reply was "That is a brand new sensor from GM". So I had to show him what the problem was before he believed me. This was last week and I haven't heard from him so I guess a new sensor cured the problem So there is 2 hall effect and a variable sensor all in one? Great bypass test I will have to remember that one

Keith, awesome video! I had just one concern about the last voltage check at 11:45 when you are front-probing the EBCM connector. The "high" voltage was only 7.4V instead of the 9.4V at the other two locations. Also, the square wave is not as clean, and seems to decay on the high portions. The only explanation I can think of for this is that either your voltmeter ground is crusty, or there is an almost completely broken wire between C101 and the EBCM. The resistance is so high, that the10 MOhm voltmeter is actually pulling it partially to ground? Maybe try relocating the meter ground, and then the patented "Keith tug test" on the EBCM harness and see if the signal drops out completely? What are your thoughts?
@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics7 жыл бұрын
But then again scan data was showing signal "A" stuck "high", and there is no way that could happen with a broken wire, since this looks like a pull-up design. New EBCM module it is! :)

billmck12345 actually if it pulled to low using the test light that would mean the new sensor had failed or that there was a pin fitment problem at the sensor itself
@billmck123457 жыл бұрын
ok I see now.. signal gets manually pulled down and ebtc reports through the scanner... which would leave the circuit in an open state but part of the circuit is showing a bias voltage of 5 volts...so would I start looking on the other side of that sensor circuit for pin issue/or sensor.... sorry to get drawn out on this, just tryin to learn here keith...
@NewLevelAuto7 жыл бұрын
billmck12345 not sure of what I am missing in the question. The sensor is providing the bias and the signal. If I manipulate the signal out and the ebtcm status does not change then I test from C101 to break the system in half

sorry my question was about direction, when you were attempting to pull down "a" with the test light...it didn't pull down...it was just a question on what if it did....thanks for explaning...

Thanks for the experience man.Just one question : If the turn signal was not present at Brakes module connector BUT present at midway connector this would mean the wire from the midway connector to brakes connector is short to ground and mechanic need to use test lamp at midway connector to check for short with connector disconnected.

No worries, I know you're a busy man. I have an interesting case on a BMW e61 -04. The Fuel level indicator in the instrument doesn't work until you drive it. It slowly climbs up until you stop. Then it goes to empty. Had the scanner on it and the sensors (2) in the tank shows accurate. Also noted if you pull the fuse, it will reset the fuel level and it will stay until you stop. Haha, funny times.

Well sense it's under car probably just corrosion at plug terminal if it's disassembleable can be cleaned up instead of buying new and programming just my two cents good video bro

not to ask you a bunch of questions but what would you recommend? I was also looking at the autel ms906bt.

David Christine I own one of those myself, it is nowhere near as fast as my launch, but it is a very capable tool. However I do like being able to remote into someone else's Launch tablet to assist them on a vehicle when they are stuck. Autel has tried to make their version of this work and they've failed miserably. Again though they are both great tools. I need speed and accuracy not just accuracy. And Autel just doesn't suit my needs, but it may fit yours perfectly

Did the new module fix it? It's strange for a brake control module to feature a steering sensor, or is that part of the brake system?

roadkill5333 Nowaday nothing is really just a simple anitlock brake system. Almost all manufacturers like to incorporate traction control. And when it comes to Suv's they also add rollover protection . This all gives me an idea for a video that can help explain a little better. And new module is on its way, I will make a follow up video when I receive it so I can explain the programming process also

It's part of the stability control system. Compares steering input with a yaw rate sensor to detect understeer or oversteer and supplies brakes to try to correct it. All new cars come with it.
