Default Steering angle sensor write-up?

I am getting ready to replace the clock spring in my 2003 XC90 T6. It has the anti-skid message and the codes say steering angle sensor.
Is there a good write up for this job on an XC90? After many searches, I have found write-ups for other Volvos, but nothing specifically for an XC90.

If I missed something obvious, I apologize, and would still appreciate your help.

I am aware that I will have to have a shop do some computer work when I am done, but I would like to do the replacement myself.

Thanks for any help,

Bob,

Curious to see if replacing the clockspring fixed your problem. Was told by a tech the clockspring comes programmed but still needs to be recalibrated by volvo. Any truth to this?

Thanks

Paul

Yes, the system needs calibration after replacement.

Well, I did the clock spring while the car was out of commission because I sent the instrument cluster in to be re-manufactured. I've driven for a few days now, no error message.
There is one for SRS System, but the people who did the cluster said there would be.
BTW, I did it without a write up, but it was incredibly easy. There is a YouTube video about how to pop out the air bag (for a different model, but same procedure). Everything else was self explanatory, except checking the rotations on the clock spring.
I was very surprised at how easy it was.
