ESP/BAS warning lights
Recently both steering rack and tie rods were replaced on my 07 Aspen Limited AWD (5.7 Hemi) with 35k. Everything works fine ( no warning lights on) at startup until I turn the steering wheel in any direction then ESP/BAS warning lights come on. When I start it up again the ESP/BAS light stays off until I turn the steering wheel slightly then they come on. The mechanic said over time these lights will "learn " to go off at startup. Really? It sounds to me like a sensor's triggering something. Anybody else experienced this problem?

Here's the conclusion to this story if anybody experiences the same problem. Save yourself same of the grief I experienced. The clock spring on the steering wheel snapped when the new rack was installed because the steering wheel wasn't properly blocked. The steering sensor was ok. $350 later for the part and an hour of labor everything's back to normal. Because the original "mechanic " was a friend we split the new repair cost! The original repair was done 6 month's ago and what I didn't know was I had no anti lock breaks during that time. Live and learn !

Why no ABS? It's a clock spring.

The steering angle sensor is part of the ESP...which is a function of ABS controller. No SAS input then you have no ESP.

ESP/BAS Traction Control Warning Light
I have a 2008 Chrysler 300 Signature Series. I recently had two recall issues serviced at my local Chrysler Dealer (Arrigo). One recall was for the ignition switch, and the other was to replace the drivers side airbag unit. Shortly after having this service work done, the ESP/BAS and traction control lights started coming on.
The owners manual suggests turning the wheels fully to the left and then right and the sensor would reset and it did. When I would make a sharp right turn, the lights would come back on. Could this be related somehow to the repairs that were made? |
