Bumping this one as I had an issue resetting the sensor yesterday. I jumped pins 4 and 9, turned the wheel 45 degrees to the left, turned the key to the ignition II position (Without starting the car), but the EPS light never shut off. I did notice that the ABS light will blink 3-4 times slowly, shut off for a moment, then begin blinking 3-4 times. I thought the blinking ABS was a fault code, but upon removing the paperclip from the pins and starting the car, no lights show up.
Is there something I'm missing here or doing wrong?

Don't forget that for initiating the torque reset you have to turn the steering at about 45deg and NOT release your hands from the steering. Only for the rest of the procedure you have to release your hands.
In fact, you have to hold it with your hands for the EPS to detect such micro-torque and initiate the reset procedure, it's not necessary to have it perfectly at 45º deg, it can go 45º or more as long as it is turned to the left.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? My steering started acting up earlier this year and does something similar. On some very cold days the steering will be very heavy or shudder for a second or two before the PS gradually starts to function normally.
