Abstract
A method for determining a steering wheel angle of a vehicular steering system includes determining a center position for the steering sensor output every time the vehicle is started. The method employs the use of a yaw sensor for computing an estimate of the actual steering position so that a center position may be back computed to provide immediate and accurate steering position data using the steering sensor signal for controlling an automotive device. The accuracy of the initial estimates may be improved upon by implementing interim and final center algorithms as vehicle operating characteristics permit.
