  Q: How to center the Steering Angle Sensor on Cadillac Escalade EXT?

  A:

  For Steering Angle Sensor centering start by identifying the sensor type through illustrations then disconnect it. Record the sensor type while confirming the right side location of the front facing sensor connector. Centering is unnecessary before sensor removal when the existing sensor will be reused. Before removal detach the sensor connector then take out the sensor piece from the adapter and bearing assembly. During sensor installation you must create an alignment mark on the flush rotor flange cuff before removal to secure correct alignment. The fresh sensor you buy will have its built-in pin already installed. Keep the install pin at the sensor until the sensor completes full sensor seating. Pull the sensor into alignment with the Steering Shaft and push it into position with the bearing assembly until the connector locks into place. The sensor's front section includes a foam ring with a pin hole and a flushed rotor flange cuff along with an alignment mark. The back portion displays double d flats together with foam ring and alignment tab installation. For each sensor installation follow the alignment steps until the sensor fits entirely into position. New sensors that lack the pin need an immediate replacement with an alternative sensor.

  Q: How to service the Steering Angle Sensor on Cadillac Escalade EXT?

  A:

  Service on the Steering Angle Sensor begins by checking sensor type before aligning the sensor connector's front connector on the right side. The adapter and bearing assembly requires the removal of both sensor and connector before proceeding. A pre-removal centering step is unnecessary when preserving the same sensor for reuse. Before removing the sensor create a reference mark on the flush rotor flange cuff so the components stay properly aligned during replacement. During installation keep the pin in place until you successfully position the sensor. Place the sensor against the Steering Shaft with the front position of the sensor showing a foam ring and a pin hole alongside the flushed rotor flange cuff and alignment mark. Connect the device while checking that the sensor back contains double d flats in addition to a foam ring and an alignment tab set-up. The installation process for extra sensors requires repetition of alignment steps while maintaining rotor flange cuff alignment marks throughout sensor positioning. Make sure to check that the front section of the sensor uses proper holes and marks for correct setup.
