I'm having problem with my vehicle. I believe it says something like steering position is not possible it turned off my stabitrac and TC and it says service those systems I believe it also said lost contact with left and right wheel speed sensor amp is too low. Or high I can't remember. I changed wheel speed sensor and reset codes and still same problem.

It would be best if we ran the codes to see what there are, so we don't head off in the wrong direction before we start doing repairs. It sounds like you have a bad steering wheel position sensor but let's be sure first. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Here is how to change out the sensor in case a code is stored for it. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.

Thanks for the code. Yep, this would be a steering angle sensor problem, I would replace the sensor and then clear the codes which should fix the problem.
