Google search on that code points to the yaw sensor under the seat as opposed to wheel speed sensors.

I dont believe this is the ABS/Wheel speed sensors as the ABS light to the left is NOT lit.
If you have a look at this article I wrote way back it explains this specific warning - which is more likely a steering angle fault,
viewtopic.php?t=121145

You say you deleted the codes but you neglected to say what they were? Reading the codes is the only way to determine where the fault lies.
Happy to discuss if you wish.

If it helps, on my Autophix 5900 I can watch live data from the SAS. It shows the amount of degrees that the wheel is turned either side of straight ahead. It only measures the angle, not the rate at which the angle changes.
Therefore, I would start at the yaw sensor, under the drivers seat.
If your car is a pre-facelift this will be a lot cheaper than the facelift version.
You can probably get away with unbolting the seat and tilting it over for access, which saves disturbing the electrical plug on the seat.
Check it is all clean and dry under there, as the biggest killer of these things is damp from a leaking door membrane.

Always happy to help if I can.

Not sure if you are in Cirencester or Bristol but call Forza and ask them for a quote. They charge£40 for a diagnostic which is why I bought icarsoft i910 and Inpa. But very reasonable for a sas change which was completed in a morning, much less than 5hours.
