Thank you for posting this. I will be taking mine out after I charge the battery and try to get my key out. It's currently stuck in the ignition. This problem has been a complete nightmare. Stuck in a parking lot on a Sunday, tow to dealer who quotes $9k (you can almost buy the car for that!), they damaged brake line and wouldn't admit it, unlock the transmission somehow is all they did, then I tow back home to fix myself. Had to buy 6000lb skates just to get in garage where it's sat for 5 months DOA! My 2009 turbo s is essentially perfect other than this problem or I'd have just junked it for all this hassle.
Great Video I am thinking of buying a 2009 or Turbo or GTS model and the idea of running into this problem terrifies me but you have certainly simplified this cost effectively. Thank you
Wish I had found your video before killing myself on my VW Touareg but of course I was looking for a video for that and found none, but here is exactly what I needed only a bit too late to save me any trouble.. I need to reference the other video because I can access that screw due to the lock but yet my steering isn't locked, I hope I haven't done some additional damage, but knowing my luck, I probably have.
Eres un genio hermano, muy buen video e informativo. Gracias. Ya me animé para hacer este jale yo mismo. Oye una pregunta: como le voy hacer para q no me salga el steering wheel faulty code?
Olá amigo, uma pergunta. Preciso movimentar o volante para acertar a direção e rebocar o carro para que eu possa leva-lo ao mecânico. Seria este procedimento do vídeo? O carro não reconhece minha chave. Preciso reboca-lo para levar este até o local. Como faria?
Yo tengo una cayenne s 2004 y se prendió el código de sterring faulty pero no esta lockeado el volante. Tampoco prende, ni el radio ni las ventanas y la palanca de cambios

New subscriber.. I have cayenne with steering lock fault that happened because of attempted start with low volts. Now it won't connect with my scanner. I believe I need a certain different type of scanner called durametric? It's $400. Is this only way to clear code? Prior to this my cayenne was acting strange.. My rear wiper won't turn off,(had to pull fuse) sometimes remote fob wouldn't work.. Only would lock, not unlock. The steering fault appeared after it sat for week getting drive shaft installed. Battery ran low and BANG steering fault flashing after attempted start. Won't do anything.. Only flashers work. Radio turns on for 2 seconds then off.
There's always a chance that you can fix is by clearing the code. However, I don't think you have to buy a durametric scanner. It's likely that any generic scanner might be able to get the job done. amzn.to/3htBVjC We can always take your ECU SET here and diagnose issue for you.
@@SpecializedECURepair Something similar happened to me, I let my car sit on the driveway for about a week or two and when I came back, the battery was dead. After I charged the battery it said "Steering Faulty" but before this happened, I didn't have any other issues starting the car. When I try to start it now, it says "Steering Faulty" and I can't turn the wheel or shift it out of park. When I pull the shifter button I can hear a click in the key cylinder. Does this sound like the ELV? Is there some trouble shooting that I can do at home to make sure that the ELV is the issue and not something else? I have also tried multiple different scanners and had ZERO luck. I have tried a $20, $40, $150 and $4,000 scanner and had no luck. Thank you.

Hello i have a Bentley but the garage lost my old steering lock how i can fix the car can i used other one from other car
Hi ,
Please how to make the steering wheel free without removing the ELV?
Nice video
Question sir, thank you for the video. Is the ELV module programmed to the vehicle or we can swap it with any ?
Hi, the ELV module is programmed to the vehicle, so it cannot be swapped with another ELV without it also being programmed.

Which is the OEN part number???
the ELV does not have a OEM number because it is not sold separately from the entire steering column.
