Fixed it now, thank goodness! I think I actuation tested the steering angle, just learning about the Thindiag functions, but it deactivated the active steering. I had to do a reset through the app, steering left/right, then bam! It was back! I'll take it for a spin this morning to check its all good.

Even though my scan tool is still getting a reading for the steering angle, I pulled it and cleaned the optical disk. Reinstalled and nothing has changed. Kind of lost on where to look now. Any suggestions or has anybody else had a similar problem?
Fault codes from my scanner
6DEC DSC:interface, active front steering
6146 AL control unit cannot change to active mode, under voltage
614A AL motor position angle not initialized

You should do calibration on your Dynamic drive system, with relearning of all axle sensors
check out that video:
