C0805 — Steering Angle Sensor Calibration
The chassis or stability control module reports that the steering angle sensor has not been calibrated or that the calibration data has been lost. ESP requires a calibrated zero position and is disabled until calibration is performed.
General code reference. Confirm the definition and diagnostic procedure for your vehicle's year, model and engine. A stored code alone does not identify a failed part.
Affected components
- Steering angle sensor
- Esp control module
Possible causes to check
These are possible checks, not a ranked diagnosis. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's test procedure before replacing parts.
- Calibration required after battery disconnect or repair
- Sensor lost calibration data
- Wheel alignment incorrect, blocking calibration
