Hi All new to the forums and need some input
Been having some issues with my punto evo (2011 1.4)
I have been getting 'Christmas' lights on my dash warning me of everything going wrong
The issues:
Red steering wheel light and Amber warning triangle circled by a arrow light come up.
Followed by 'ASR Unavailable, 'Hill Holder Unavailable', 'ESP Not Working' and have power steering checked
This only happens on start up
Turning the steering wheel turns off the red power steering wheel light.
Procedure to temporarily 'fix' the problem is this:
- Key in and turn on ignition.
- See the warning lights.
- Start the car.
- Turn the wheel any direction
- Watch the steering wheel symbol go away.
- Turn off the car.
- Start the car.
- All the lights and warnings have gone (same thing happens everytime i use ther car)
The Power steering is fine there are no codes in the power steering system for a fault and the steering never goes heavy
i get the Code C0051-86 - Steering angle sensor invalid In the ABS section while scanning (wont let me calibrate it due to fault codes)
i am assuming this is the steering angle sensor thats in the stalks (indicator/wiper section) is the issue.
and not the torque sensor lower down in the colum (as i assume my code reader would be saying torque and not angle)
What would you recommend?
Thanks in advance,scott
