Steering Angle Sensor Adjustment

Has anyone had their steering angle sensor go all weird after not parking their V with the wheels straight/neutral?

I had mine parked in the driveway to give Junior some TLC, until the drizzle screwed over my chances of finishing my bi-annual polish/wax routine. Anyway, upon starting the car, the display was showing the wheels were in a straight position yet the steering wheel was still in a half-turn to the left!!

Thankfully I bought my own Consult III+ tool last year so I was able to re-adjust the steering angle but it's still bizarre that it happened.

So has anyone else experienced this? I usually do park with the wheels in a straight position but let's face it, sometimes we just don't for whatever reason. Surely the system shouldn't freak out over that? I'm putting it down to a glitch but as an engineer, I still like to exhaust all options in looking for the answer to any electronic mystery.

      Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?

      Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!

      End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
