Resetting the steering sensor during alignment????

How is it done? Do I need the Porsche scanner? Can durametric or autoenginuity handle such a task?

You do need the PIWIS to set it. There is a screen where you will zero it out then do the alignment.

FYI..for anyone who stumbles across my post.


Since I'm in a process of shopping around for a Scanner and I was researching the Durametric tool I watched this video link:

http://www.durametric.com/PorscheOverviewVideo.aspx

and apparently their software will also callibrate the steering angle sensor.

Durametric may have a new software release since I upgraded a few months ago. Be sure it will reset the steering angle sensor on your type of vehicle. I tried to check it on a 996tt and it wouldn't accommodate me. It would only do the SUV if I remember correctly. A phone call should answer the question.

That is correct. I just got my Durametric cable yesterday and it will not calibrate the sensor on a 2002 996tt.
