    Hi guys, I have a Volvo 670, 2006,
    With Volvo D12 engine.
    From one week I am driving with the TCS light on,
    on my dashboard. The truck is moving but is like something pushing it back or stopping it. I read some info about the same problem at the forum that says might be from the alignment. I put brand new steer tires and right now I am doing the alignment if the problem is still there when I take my truck from alignment, is there anyone who can help me with some more information about what the problem could be.

    Thanks and I appreciate any help.

    PS. Oo, there is one more thing, when I turn the switch on without starting the truck I am waiting around 10 second the truck is doing some tests I guess and at the end I can hear a noise like (pssst) air is coming out from some of the valves but since I have the TCS problem I can't hear that noise anymore.
    Thanks, I appreciate

    need to post fault code after alignment the steering angle sensor usually is not reading the right steering angle.

    Thank you very much is there more information that you can give me about that sensor like where it is located? Is it easy to change? And how to do the calibration? If you know of course.

    it is located under the steering wheel, yoiu have to remove it then three t25 screws to take off sensor to calibrate it you need bendix a com software. you can get online usually for free from what i know and there is a procedure in there.

    Are you just having the steer axle aligned, or a 3 axle alignment. I have seen trucks roll a lot easier when the rears were lined up.
