The C1163 code is usually triggered when the vehicle is out of alignment or after performing a wheel alignment. After performing a wheel alignment the "Steering Angle Sensor" needs to be reset. Some wheel alignment machines are capable to reset the sensor after the alignment, otherwise an special OBDII scanner (with access to the ABS system) needs to be used to reset the sensor.
To diagnose the C1163 Infiniti code, it typically requires 1.0 hour of labor. The specific diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops can differ based on factors such as the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. It is common for most auto repair shops to charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The steering angle sensor detects the rotation amount, angular velocity and direction of the steering wheel, and transmits the data to the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Actuator and Electric Unit (Control Unit) via Control Area Network (CAN) communication. The ABS Actuator and Electric Unit monitors the Steering Angle Sensor. The ABS Actuator and Electric Unit set the OBDII code when the Steering Angle Sensor is not to factory specifications.
