ESP fault after replacing the wipers lever
Hello,
I recently removed the steering wheel of my Audi A4, 2009 to replace its wipers lever with a BC lever. After I installed everything the lever works perfectly, but it gives me some errors related to the "Steering Angle Sensor (G85)" and the ESP does not work anymore.
Before I disassembled the steering wheel, I removed the battery terminals as I read on the forums and I was careful not to broke anything in the process. After installation I tried to calibrate the sensor as described in this link: Audi A5 (8T) Steering Wheel Electronics - Ross-Tech Wiki
I managed to go to the "16-Steering Wheel", inserted code 40168 to "Security Access" then go to "Basic Settings - 04" and while rotating the steering wheel it shows how many degrees it is rotated. The problem is that when I try to activate the "Basic Settings ON / OFF" it says: ERROR: Group 001 Not Available.
Because it shows me how many degrees the steering wheel is rotated, I thought that the sensor is not broken, but the log shows me "Defective". Do you know what steps can I follow with the VCDS to make sure if the sensor works or not?
I attached the full log, so you can look of it.
Thank You!
