G2 Error Code

having trouble getting rid of this pesky g2 code, ive had this with several other units, its always been spacers or a bad sensor. With this one in particular it only happens when the unit is turned all the way to the right. I have replaced the prox plate, prox sensor, screws and spacers. the gapping with my gauge its dead even the entire way acrossed the plate/sensor. Could use some help here. starting to suspect the VM. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I see this was back in 2017. I'll post my observations for anyone working through a G2 code who may read this in future. This applies to all 4150 & 4250 Raymond dock stockers and Toyota 8BNCU as well.

I would suggest checking the prox sensor, position and gap, as well as the sensor plate first - as the OP did.

Second I would suggest checking the condition of the woodruff keys at the top of the steer spindle. These wear out, as does the top hub plate itself which allows for excessive movement when steering to full lock - particularly to the right from what I've observed.

In this case it seems the new VM resolved the issue for the OP.

Did eventually replace the VM and it did solve the issue.
