Could be a couple things. Gotta narrow it down by your symptoms. If it’s not engaging vtec check out your top dead center sensor. It’s by the fire wall and connected around valve cover I believe. Is it fuel cutting at 7k?
The service manual says to align the "alphabet stamping" on the pinion shaft with the rack guide screw (which looks like it points straight up) when the rack is in the straight ahead driving position. Well, there may be a couple of scratches that could be letters on the old sensor, but they would have been on the bottom, not the top, if my painted on alignment marks are correct. The new sensor has no such lettering at all. Did you bother with this instruction?
I tried it that way first but it would not align right. The shat rotates 360 degrees so injustice aligned the teeth so the wheels and steering wheel were straight and that worked best for me. No problems so far.
My 2006 S2000 has no power steering. EPS DTC is 32-01 (Problem with main current sensor offset). Service manual recommended checking the electrical connections. I checked and cleaned the three EPS module connectors, and the connectors to the steering rack and torque sensor. No visible corrosion. Next, I tried replacing the EPS module. Since Honda no longer stocks this part, I got one off eBay. I installed the used module and reset the EPS. I still get the same DTC 32-01 code. I measured a motor resistance of 0.3-0.4 ohms. That seems about right. After I start the car, the EPS light does not come on until I turn the steering wheel. I’m wondering if it’s the torque sensor. I checked the resistance on the three sensor pins for a short or open circuit. Got ~14 ohms measured between the two outside pins and the center pin. Measured ~28 ohms between the left and right pins. Any thoughts?
I would bet its the sensor. I tried replacing the EPS module as well with no luck. It started out having a problem when temps dropped but it progressively got worse and I suspect, with time, would have failed completely. The Torque Sensor is fairly common problem with the car so my guess it that is where your problem resides.
@@No_life_haha For me, it was the torque sensor that fixed the problem. If you are losing power steering when temps drop, that is what I would suggest replacing.
@@michaelsullivan6093 There are a couple of S2K FB groups. But places like HondaPartsOnline should still have them as does ebay. However, be sure you get a left hand drive version as ebay was full of right hand drive versions and the splines run the wrong way.
Great video.. I’ll try on mine. My ap1 doesn’t rev pass 7k rpm do you know what could be the problem

@@pinkpsilo3337 that is what mine was. Loose connector by the valve
Cover. Once I plugged it in securely, car was fine

Did u ever get this resolved??? I'm having the same issue!!

I also have a 06 it's pulling a code 32. EPS light kicks on as soon as I start move the steering wheel after I start up car.
Where did you find a new torque sensor?
From a group online. There are all sorts of places to find them still.
@@RoughRidersTV Can you provide a link to the group? I wasn't able to find it on S2Ki forum. Thanks for the video and the tips on installation!

Is it still available from Honda?
I think so but it's expensive. You can find it cheaper online.
