Do you rate the Thinkdiag for DIY mechanics?

[projectEliYahu]

Bro!
Thank you so much!
After clock spring replacement I had all kinds of lights on
Was ready to take it to Subaru dealer
After watching this video, took the steering wheel off, hooked up my think driver diagnostic tool and tested the angle sensor by turning it.
The diagnostic tool showed it was way off to 635 degrees!
Recalibrated to 0 degrees manually and put everything together. Recalibrated it using the diagnostic tool and also reset the brakes .

All lights are gone, problem solved!
Thank you bro!

Hi can the angle sensor being tested without installing the clock spring on toyota? I mean just detach it from the clock spring and turn it by hand!

Hi if the angle is out how do u actually calibrate it

I have a Ford Fiesta 1.5L, the ABS, TCS, and brake led light up. Got fault code U3000:48 on the ABS ECU. I noticed the steering angle correctly giving values in the PSCM. However when I read data stream from the ABS module, it gives 0 when the steering wheel moved. Any advise?

What OBD scanner are you using in the video? Does the price of it cover all vehicles and modules?

I am looking for a low cost of even free app that can show the live data from that sensor even if for that price it only shows that. My vehicle is a 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport SV. I may have a bad shock or strut, maybe something is bent, or maybe something is loose. I ran over a curb a while back and that is what most likely began this nightmare. The vehicle does appear to drive OK at times so this is intermittent. I just know there is a bad part there but as long as there is a way to check the steering angle sensor I may as well make sure it is still good. That curb was on the right hand side (passenger side) and the vehicle seems to have a very light drift in that direction. It has been to dealers and shops and it just baffles me how *NONE* of them can find anything wrong. Coincidentally after making a right turn it feels like something is sticking slightly. Wouldn't it be something if it was just my caliper dragging that is the source of this misery that is making me just want to get rid of it? What are the odds of it being just a bad caliper or maybe it doesn't like the brake pads that are on it? I also wonder if the anti rattle clips are installed since I can imagine they would be designed to help prevent caliper problems. The anti rattle clips would be stainless steel so unless they are a bizarre unknown cheap Chinese brand (usually generic crap) they should not rust. It is just plain dumbfounding that no one can seem to find something and come to me in the waiting area and say "I found something you may want to see, come and take a look". Just incase all of these mechanics forgot, I would be very grateful to them if they could solve my mystery!! My other mystery is why does no one notice it but me!! I actually test drove a different vehicle I am extremely tempted to buy and it rides like new (no issues) despite having 80, 000 miles (more than what my Rogue has). That vehicle was a 2022 Tiguan. Heck, I may be willing to tolerate the Taos's known to be somewhat temperamental DSG! My first major sign something is very wrong with the Nissan is when I made a right turn in light snow and darn near drifted into a vehicle waiting for a light to turn left. I think that sticking sensation in the steering is it but what may be causing it?? When that happened I was not at all moving fast mind you. Other people effortlessly went the same way faster and I was even being cautious because I was suspecting I may have screwed something up. I was also being cautious in that situation since SUVs are top heavy inherently. On the highway it feels like there are bumps that were never really there. Maybe they are there and I now have a bad shock or strut making every little imperfection I hit cause me to reminisce of a place where I lived with a bumpy cobblestone road. My guess is that one road must be at least 100 years old. I think the only reason it is still cobblestone is that it is steep. If it was asphalt it would be just dangerous at times! I remember hearing about a really horrible accident on the bend part of it and I am thankful I was not there when it happened!!
