Default Installed used torque sensor, reset but still seem to have a issue

Just installed the used torque sensor and reset the system. My original problem when turning right seems to have gone away. Instead of it cutting out completely, it now just seems to be difficult to turn right than left. At least now the force required to turn right is steady colored to before, but it seems I can turn left with one finger while turning right, need to use my full hand. Should I try to reset the torque sensor again or can there be another issue?

Thanks

i suspect the connector plug to the torque sensor - clean and ensure no corrosion on the contacts
when you clip it back, ensure it is firmly in place.

now see how you go. let us know how you go btw for future reference.

Checked the plug from before and looks good. Made sure everythjng was clean before the install. Without the car moving, the power steering works fine. It's inly when it's moving when you feel more tension Turing right than left.

Think it can be the eps? The torque sensor I purchased was used and seems to have corrected the notch turning right issue but it still requires more force turning right. I can always try to swap out the eps with a local member to see if that corrects it. It's just strange that without moving the car, the eps works perfectly fine. It's only when I drive that you can tell it's off.
