Steering Support LImited
Discussion
Hi
My 981C battery was disconnected and reconnected during servicing.
I now have a new message on the dash: Steering support limited; Possible to drive on.
Car seems fine, apart from the message.
I've tried multiple lock-locks, when stationary and with forward motion; I've disconnected the battery and repeated the lock-lock routine, to no avail. Has anyone else had a similar exprience? How did you fix it?
TIA

Maybe try this (found here: is https://www.porscheclubgb.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=7700...
Steering angle sensor (PSM)
The steering angle sensor must be re-initialised when the battery is disconnected and connected.
Turn wheels to straight-ahead position.
Switch ignition off and then on again twice.
Start engine.
From the straight-ahead position, turn steering wheel approx. 20° to the right, past the straight-ahead position.
Drive the vehicle straight ahead for at least one second at a speed above 4 km/h (2.5 mph).
The steering angle sensor segment is recognised again in this process.
Once the sensor has been successfully initialised, the fault code that is stored in the fault memory is documented using the fault deletion counter.
The fault memory erases itself automatically.
The PSM indicator light in the instrument cluster goes out.
