Steering angle sensor went bad

[philosophicaljt]

My traction Off and VSC lights came on the other day. The dealer tells me its a Steering Angle Sensor thats bad. Part #89245-06010. Dealer wants $366.88

Can anyone help me out? I cannot find this part on any toyota website.

Has anyone else had this problem?

When I turn the car on, everything is normal. No dash lights or anything. Once driving, as soon as I make a turn, the lights come on. The TRAC OFF and VSC lights come on and stay on, until I turn the car off.

It does this everyday. The car drives fine. I think it is harder to run at slow speeds, but it could be in my head.

any thoughts?

Never had that happen to my ride before.

Bump to you.

BTW, did you change your H11s to H9s a while ago? Using 9012 HIRs?

I was going to, but instead I did HID's. I am using 9005 fogs, and I want to buy The 9011 High beam's for my DRL's, but switched back to amber 9005's.

About the problem though, Anyone know where the sensor is? I can't seem to find my copy of the service manual.

Thanks on the input with the lighting.

As for your problem, try using both mechanical and body Catalogs to see if the illustration comes up. You could also ask Reggie.
