Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Circuit Low
Steering wheel angle sensor signal voltage below expected range. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
Affected components
- Steering angle sensor
Common causes
- High likelihood: Signal wire shorted to ground
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Low likelihood: Harness chafing through insulation
Possible symptoms
- ABS warning light on
- ESC/stability control deactivated
- Possible reduced brake assist
- Speedometer may behave erratically
Diagnostic notes
- The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
- Reduced-power or limp mode may occur
