Broken steering angle sensor

[benm]

I have a 2011 ML 350cdi and accidently put the steering wheel back on 1 turn out. After turning sharply the ESP light came on and diagnosis reports a steering angle sensor fault.
Can this part be repaired or must it be replaced?

I meant I split the steering linkage and it was accidently rotated 1 turn before reconnecting.

No, you have broken the ribbon cable inside (physically in two probably). New unit is the only way to go .

Thought that might be the case . . . .
