Default Stereo Install

Hello!
I have a problem to install my new stereo. I bought the stereo with 6CD carger and mp3 support to remove the "old" radio. I have a 2007 SXT and Iīve read that I must remove the cable of the negative batteryterminal. Ok, that is easy to do. The installation of the new radio does seem to be a problem. But after battery reconnection, I must calibrate the SAS of the ESP system. The model from 2005-2006 you can handle that easy by turning the steeringwheel from the center to the left and right end.
Thatīs all. But the ī07 need the factory scan tool to recalibrate the SAS (Steering Angle Sensor) after batteryreconnection. So the problem is that I donīt want to drive evrytime Iīve disconnected the battery to the garage to recalibrate my SAS. The original scan tool cost about 4000$.
Thatīs crazy!
So what can I do to recalibrate my SAS at home?
Which cheaper scan tool can do the job too?
Has someone a solution?

Much thanX!

So long.....

JC

Hello!

I Did it. Iīve swiched my stereo and all systems are ok and there are no problems. Before I started to remove the old one, Iīve removed the fuse 36. Now it is 3 Days ago and there are no problems with ESP or something.
By the way, I switched from REF to the RAK Radio.

see ya....

Alex
