Hey guys and gals,
Was busy fixing my steering wheel as last time it was off it wasnt put back on straight but after putting together getting error with 4ws and code 24 Main Steering Angle Sensor Front 8,15 CU, FSSAS, FMSAS, HC
Can anyone tell me where this one is? And if so has anyone had this issue before?

Its the one behind the steering wheel. Sounds like you fudged it whilst messing with the steering wheel. Its a sensitive sensor so doesn't take much so mess it up. There is a diagnosis chart to follow to check the three phases but its a ball ache tbh
Is it defo located on the tabs in the wheel?

Yea the first one with the green 5pin connector. Make sure you follow the manual when re installing that sensor. As there are marks that need to be lined up ect

if i was to get a whole new unit for the steering column would that be a better idea?

Yea but I would imagine you could only get second hand ones now, unless you got lots of ££££££££. I still have one on my lude from where I removed 4WS. The sensor is still there tho
And was working when I removed the 4ws. But cannot guarantee it works now tho
