2009 Chevrolet Malibu Steering Angle Sensor Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to replace the Steering Angle Sensor on 2009 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: Inserting a locating pin should be part of the new sensor purchase when you install it; you will need to buy a new sensor if your replacement sensor does not have a locating pin. A new sensor needs to be ordered if locating pins are not included. Sensor replacement demands that you place a locating pin beforehand since losing sensor position will lead to sensor disposal. Install the steering column anti-rotation pin of type j 42640 first before starting your procedure. This step requires the wheels in a straight position. The pin size requirement falls between 1.0 and 2.0 mm. Remove the intermediate Steering Shaft along with all necessary electrical connectors from the steering column. Pull the Steering Angle Sensor out from its position. When assembling the new sensor slide it into position and remove the locating pin before reconnecting electrical connectors and the intermediate Steering Shaft to the steering column. Use tools to eliminate the anti-rotation pin (J 42640).
