Ive Pm’d a few on the List however no replies

 

I don’t mind driving further afield if there’s a someone who can code me  Steering Assist / end stops 

 

 

TIA 

 

If you hover over their site names with your cursor it will show you when they last visited the site, sorry I've no idea how this works on a phone or so call "smart" device (they are not smart at all).

 

Had a thread on this (including over issue, showing how intertwined the car's computer system and programs are) recently I'll have a look and see if I can find it for you and leave a link here, otherwise this subject has been covered on this site and elsewhere, not necessarily with VCDS but the procedure will be the same regardless of scan tool make and program.

 

Here we are, go from this post in the topic and read as many as necessary or you want, there is a bit of a surprise ending to the matter. - https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/529566-steering-angle-sensor-reset-fabia-2020-nj/#findComment-5917835 

 

HTH.

Cheers pal, The steering angle is set not sure if it can be calibrated better using the in car procedure

 

I can set the steering centre to 0.0 using autel however how could i delete the Steering angle and start over Disconnect battery?

 

Also looking at the picture the steering assist is set to Automatic 

 

again i feel the steering end stops were a definite stop at the rack before, now its feels like the stop is at the tie rod possibly stresses the tie rods to pre-mature failure 

 

No idea if this has been done intentionally or not, How can changing tie rods effect the electronics? Or does the rack detect / lose steering pressure thus resets to default idk 

 

Most people probably wouldn’t notice any difference if they hadn’t drove the car before however i have lol 

 

 

 

Obviously the new parts have to be correct and fitted correctly and nothing else disturbed in the area and/or relating to the steering and suspension.

 

Have a good look at the posts in that thread - the problem(s) hayeksban, the original poster, had and solved included end stops not learnt (see pdf download of Launch X431). 

 

With the Autel scan tool do ensure the program is for your (make) model and year (or VIN) of vehicle, that the program is fully updated before you use the tool, that the car battery and if appropriate scant tool battery are not in a lower state of charge otherwise you may get spurious readings - and particularly with electric power steering you want plenty of battery power as it uses a lot.

 

Your report doesn't show car (or tool if appropriate) battery voltage and I've not really looked too hard at the report but I did wonder at 19. steering angle sensor, angle  448.7 degrees if your steering wheel was dead ahead.

 

Always be very careful when messing with computer programs, do a back up before you start that way you can (should?) reset back to it if required don't necessarily fully trust any scan tool they all have pro and cons and errors and omissions and steering like brakes and systems you want working and not messed up.  I don't have the knowledge, training or experience to guide you and certainly not over the internet with text only on such very important car system, others will.  hayeksbane had to learn stuff as he went along but he got there.

Yes thanks, all the reason why i posted the thread in the first place 

someone knows how to do this and i have money to pay if they can fix it 

 

Btw the steering wheel was most likely turned when i screen shot this diag

Carefully read the posts and attachments in that thread hayeksban made a simple mistake you might have too.  Do make sure your scan tool program is fully updated and battery(ies) are in a good state of charge before you scan, recharge them even if a bit low.

 

Does Autel have a users advice forum like Ross Tech and OBDEleven or other data info that might relate to this?

 

Good luck.
