Basic Setting

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi SQ5, 2017 Audi Q5, 2016 Audi SQ5, 2016 Audi Q5, and 2015 Audi SQ5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

From the basic setting procedure teaches the Active Steering Control Module -J792- once only, the assignments of the measured values of the steering angle sender (=steering wheel position), of the motor position sensor (position of the eccentricity) and the index sensor (position of the steering gear pinion). In the case of new vehicles, the individual sensor signals are assigned to each other at the factory. These assignments are, therefore, a basic requirement for the initialization and also for ensuring that the steering wheel is aligned straight when driving in a straight line on a level road surface. This procedure must be performed with much care. The basic setting procedure must be performed in the service workshop after:

Installing a new / different Active Steering Control Module -J792-
Installing a new / different steering column for dynamic steering
installing a new / different Steering Angle Sensor -G85- or after recalibrating the steering angle sensor
changing the wheel alignment values

Refer to basic setting under Active Steering Control Module -J792-, refer to the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester
