I had to remove my battery in my 2007 2.5 AT Jetta to replace some coolant hoses and sat for about a week while I waited for parts. After I was done and got it all buttoned up, I had a steering light and an ABS light on the dash. I drove it down the street and both lights went away. It felt however, that the power steering was not working at all. I though that maybe the assist was turned way down, but in module 44 channel 1 it shows an error and says not available. I have a few OEM+ mods (mk6 steering wheel/module, B7 Passat 17" wheels/TPMS, 2010 Jetta cluster, highline CECM, updated CAN, GLI HID), but they all seem fine. ABS shows a power steering fault so I know it's gotta be something in there. Any ideas?

Do you have the amber steering wheel icon on the dash? If no then the power steering should work fine.

Logically, I agree. Currently there's no lights, BUT it's definitely not working (or if it is, the ratio is EXTREMELY low) as the input needed is MUCH higher. ABS is showing:

1 Fault Found:
01309 - Power Steering Control Module (J500)
008 - Implausible Signal

So, there appears to be SOMETHING wrong.

Hi, please disconnect the battery again for a few minutes, then connect it again, please note that the voltage must be above 12 volts. If so, drive, turning the steering wheel all the way to the left and right. Please note that the battery is really sufficiently charged. In the diagnostic log you can see that the voltage is below 12 volts.

It did yes, BUT the effort required is still MUCH higher than it should be.
