I'm in the process of trying to avoid going to the dealer to pay 250$ for a software update to get rid of the dreaded antiskid service required on the dash. i have scanned using VIDA and have 3 codes related to the issue which imply theres a communication fault with the Steering angle sensor.
i replaced my steering angle sensor with a good used unit however i did not replace the SWM with it. According the VIDA this is not possible although the diagnostics suggests that there is a software update that may cure my issue. I am wondering if there are any alternatives in my situation such as purchasing a 1 day licence to get access to the software update.
My fear is that if I visit a dealer they may perform the update and I may still have to replace both the SWM and SAS with a brand new unit and forked out $250 for nothing.
If anyone has some advice it would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
