So I installed my NRG short hub, put everything together, took her for a spin and noticed that my wheel was off by like a tooth. So i pulled everything apart, and when i removed the hub, the green plastic piece went with it.

I didn't reef on it or man handle anything in anyway. I thought it was weird, and figured I broke something, but put it back together anyway. I then noticed that my VSA and (!) lights were stuck on. Turning the wheel 360 in either direction didn't reset the lights either.

I'm wondering if what i broke was, in fact, the steering angle sensor? I'm aware that i don't have VSA now, which isn't much of a concern to me. but i'd still like to fix it at some point.



Thanks guys.

 

Anyone? I'm being told that it's the body switch. Is this the same thing?

I know that I should pick up a manual at some point, but after doing extensive image searches, the only thing I can find that looks similar is what i found below.

EDIT: disregard. Looks like they're one and the same. However, the part I listed is for pre 2006 models. That's why they're so cheap. 06+ are something like $200.

 

What you are seeing it part of the NRG hub. Looks to me to be a horn connection. I know the steering related sensors are not inside the passenger section of the car. They are under the hood.

 

That green piece wasn't there when i took the hub out of it's box prior to install. oh well. i don't really care if i don't have vsa anyway.
