Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) Angle Reset/Calibration - Questions, Questions

Then there is no steering angle reset available. It’s only for the steering effort module.

Correct, and the SECM only exists on trucks with adaptive steering.

TLDR: Trucks without adaptive steering (like mine) have no need for a SAS reset after an alignment, and in fact have no SAS to reset.

Through this whole thing, I really felt like I was the only person on the planet wondering about this. Maybe I was, but at least now I know.

Here's a short video I made showing how far off my steering wheel is from center compared to the FORscan STR_ANG_C readout: Video link (YouTube)

I can only think the truck must have come this way from the factory and that the dealer who did the first two alignments didn't re-zero it afterward. It's about twice as far off as the steering wheel centering that I was trying to correct with the alignments ever was.

PS: If someone else with FORscan would be willing to tell me if their SWA parameter also reads -780.10, I'd be interested to hear that. As of now it's got me a little curious.

Yes i have same issue mine reads that but also says error and ive replaced it twice now really irritating anyone have ideas?
