STEERING ANGLE CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
It is necessary to calibrate and initialize the EPAS ECU in order to correctly startup the steering system.
Calibration: When calibrating, the steering gear’s/ front axle’s straight-ahead position is compared with the
straight-ahead position of the steering column’s internal steering angle. For Calibrating the EPAS ECU, use ei-
ther ZF-Testman or TML diagnostic tester.
Initialization and teach-in software end stops: This is done by steering past the index position on the internal
torque sensor (the steering column) in the straight-ahead position, when steering left and steering right. At the
same time, the software end stops are taught in. After initializing, “Active reset” & “software end stop” functions
will be active
NOTE:
While doing the steering angle calibration and initialization process, Please follow the instruction which are
displaying on Diagnostics tool window.
If required, before doing steering angle calibration and initialization process, operator needs to do first rack
centralization followed by wheel alignment on vehicle as per specification.
If steering angle calibration process is not completed, than EPAS warning lamp will glow in IPC.
