Steering wheel angle sensor signal voltage above expected range. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
High severity. Can I keep driving?If the steering feels stiff or uneven, drive slowly and go to a repair shop or call for roadside assistance. It is a safety system.
Symptoms
- ABS warning light on
- ESC/stability control deactivated
- Possible reduced brake assist
- Speedometer may behave erratically
Most likely causes
- Signal wire shorted to battery
- Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Supply wire pinched against B+ source
What to check, in order
Start with the simplest. You can tick off each step.
Good to know
- Repair difficulty: hard
- It can trigger limp mode.
What each character of C0607 means
- C: Chassis
- 0: Generic code: same on every make
- 6: Subsystem depends on the code range
- 07: Specific fault in that system
