I am sure of nothing, unfortunately. Dealer said EPS motor and integrated sensor, they could only order EPS motor with new steering column so they couldn't replace motor only. Cost would be $1500+.

Motor is $80 and 2 hours for me to replace at home, so my thought is try that first and take it back for them to recalibrate with techstream. If that doesn't work, back to the drawing board.

I posted a screenshot of their diagnostics on my troubleshooting thread if there might be more info in there that I'm missing.
