New battery - no change, same crap

Now that You mention it: 00778 - Steering Angle Sensor (G85): No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation (solved) 02546 - Steering Limit Stop: No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation (solved) 01309 - Power Steering Control Module (J500): No Communication (send help) 18107 -P1699 008 Missing Message from Steering Wheel Electronics (I have no cruise control) 17443 - Sensor for Nox (G295): Signal too low 01423 - Lateral Acceleration Sensor (G200): No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation (can't remember, I think it's solved) 00810 - Sensor 1/2 for Brake Pressure: No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation

I don't know... how come, that ESP / ABS and the rest of electronics are fine with my battery solution, but electric power steering is the only one that's not happy about it.

I don't

Relatively new... Varta 2 year and 2 month old battery from my older car, but it's technical parameters are identical to the recommended for 8P, and it's condition is still great. I've charged it fully, before switching, and considering, that previous battery was barely able to turn over most of the time, and still provide steering assist even tho it's parameters were off the recommended I somehow doubt it. Perhaps this frequent battery disconnect ruined a sensor somewhere, and now it's sort of kind of maybe working ? as I've mentioned I did had a code for steering wheel not communicating.

Hi, 1. When I reconnected the battery I've noticed almost no change except, that radio asked for a password. And at first I had a very weak battery, that I'm guessing was randomly disconnecting itself (1-2 days on park and it won't have enough power to turn over) what's more interesting, that without any hand disconnects, that weak battery would cause the radio to ask for a password quite often. And no with that battery I haven't noticed any changes on the dash or when I've changed the battery or when I've disconnected the new battery. 2. Last time I've disconnected just the ground and waited for around 10 min~ 3. Friend had VCDS we've cleared the codes and did required calibrations, but the steering wheel managed to fix itself on my way to him when I went to him and shut off the engine then met him and he showed me where to park I've turned it over and it worked fine, that day we've dealt with what was left of "calibrations and other things" Of course we had multiple ignitions multiple turn overs, since You know we've been doing VCDS type of things, but that day my steering wheel worked fine till the very end, but the next day my steering assist once again was gone, and now I'm stuck with just 1 dash error - steering

So no one had an issue where electric power steering sometimes works / sometimes doesn't ? and not for some amount of drive, but from startup till the engine is shut off ?

Fault: 01309 - No signal/communication Any wiring I could check ? There also were some "calibration" issues, but those got resolved quick. Btw ESP light, that was on from the very beginning now is also fine - callibration

Update: power steering worked fine this morning, but for 1 turn over only, after I turned it off my next ignition greeted me with 3 beeps and red power steering light, once again power steering said no to me. Tried disconnecting battery to see, if it would set me up for at least 1 more run, but nah.

Hello, I recently became the owner of audi a3 8P, and at first I had issues with car battery (battery not staying alive longer than few days, radio occasionally asking to re-enter audi concert password ), and I dealt with it, replaced it and it solved those problems, then after a week my power steering died in such way: After driving it and parking it, I went to get the take out food, returned to the car and heard 3 beeps, then saw red power steering light and as You can expect power steering was no more. The only dashboard lights I have is red power steering and yellow ESP triangle (ESP light was on from the very beginning) Any thoughts ? should I try to disconnect battery, and see if it resets anything ? maybe ask for someone to clear the codes ? because problem to me looks more like electrical than mechanical, yup read a lot today, but perhaps exact process on how it happened might help me narrow down the issue with Your help 🙂
