Disconx battery now steering light on.
« on: October 01, 2014, 06:47:41 pm »
Evening,
I disconnected my batter and the steering fault light has came on.
I'm sure if read somewhere on here about turning the steering wheel some way to clear it.
I've tried searching but can't find anything, can anyone help with this?

Thanks

AFAIK older mk5 versions you just need to steer all left then all right. Newer version just drive a couple yards and the steering sensor will recalibrate.
