**RESOLVED** Unable to complete Steering Limit Stop Adaption
Andy:
Excellent news Jason and glad you got it sorted

@jason_rmh thanks for this info :notworthy:
Think I have the same issue a you, just wanted to see if you agree.
I had an issue with a rear wss which was changed and still persisted so my next route is to replace the hub / bearing. In the mean time I though I wouldn’t perform a battery drain test, I did this and upon reconnecting the battery i have been left with heavy steering and yellow wheel on the dash. The G85 doesn’t show any change when moving the wheel always showing 0 it won’t let me perform the basic setting. I tried by removing the wss code but still wouldn’t work but obviously you didn’t have a code either

Sounds like a similar issue.
What lead you to replace the wheel speed sensor?
Also, did you check the loom to the sensors? The same symptoms can be caused by a broken wire to the wss.
Have you got vcds? If so, do a logging test as I did above, this will show if all wss are behaving correctly and identify the problem one, if any.
If one is not working correctly, you won't be able to do basic settings.
It's a pain, because something isn't right, but there are no errors to point you to the problem.

Wow what a response time. :happy2:
I got code 00290 for rear left G46 failure, when removed it was worn on the tip and suspect the abs ring is corroded didn’t inspect the loom.
I have a noisy wheel bearing and typically changed the rear right bearing last year but obviously was the wrong one.
Yeah will do some logging at some point, bit fed up with vcds as been on it most of last night and today trying to do basic settings even tried a know working G85.
Just didn’t expect the rear to have any effect on the front steering bit guess the system all one. Thanks will report back once new bearing fitted
jason_rmh:
It all seems to be black magic, but the wss on all wheels seems to be needed by the abs unit which in turn is required for power steering, traction control etc.
Hopefully the log will show a dodgy reading from the suspect bearing to help pinpoint the issue.
It took me a good few days of head scratching to get to the end result.
Keep us posted!
