A method for identifying potential component manufacturing issues identifying a first set of calibration values corresponding to a first component and flashing a controller associated with the first component with the first set of calibration values. The method also includes performing at least one diagnostic test on the first component and, in response to receiving at least one diagnostic flag resulting from the at least one diagnostic test, determining whether the at least one diagnostic flag includes a false positive response. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the at least one diagnostic flag includes a false positive response, selectively adjusting at least one calibration value of the first set of calibration values and, in response to a determination that the at least one diagnostic flag does not include a false positive response, flashing the controller associated with the first component with a first set of production calibration values.

Systems and methods for improved manufacturing diagnostics

A steerable element angular sensor system may include a sensor having a sensing axis positioned along an axis of rotation of a knuckle, a connector connecting a yoke and a knuckle of a steering system. The sensor may detect rotation of at least one of the knuckle and the connector. Also, the sensor system may include protection from rotation detection interference from linear and angular movements of at least one of the connector and the knuckle. The sensor system may be included within a steerable element assembly and provided within a vehicle.
