Hook it up to das, if it says speed sensor error, check the wheel bearings

Did you have battery disconnected recently? Try resetting by turning steering wheel all the way left hold 2 secs, all the way right hold 2 secs, then back left hold 2 secs. Key has to be in ignition with car running to work, no keyless go start. This will reset the steering angle sensor, happens to mine on occasion when battery is disconnected.

Thanks I will bring it by Vlad's Monday. By the way Shardul I'm moving your way. Brought a house just outside of Houston in eagle springs so look forward to having you perform magic on my car.

I will try this as I had my car at the dealer because they replaced my brake pump due to a recall and mine was never done. They may have disconnected my battery as they did some other stuff.

Have you had your pulley replaced recently? If not, could be just the bearing.
Did you check to see if the bolt is still tight?

I just want to thank Shardul for helping me out and responding to my panic so fast. Rivets on my OEM sc pulley all failed and got a new one from the man. He took my call late night sent me the pulley and put that thing on in no time and I'm a noob when it comes to these things. Car is back in action and runs great. This smaller pulley makes a difference. Felt it right away. Again thanks Shardul for your help and when I move to Houston at the end of this month I can't wait to have some more things done.
