Summary:A method of determining an electrical angle offset of a motor position sensor mounted to a multi-phase electric motor, the method comprising rotating a rotor of the multi-phase electric motor at a motor velocity using an external drive system, measuring a motor phase voltage of each phase of the multi-phase electric motor, the motor phase voltage comprising a back-EMF generated by the rotation of the motor, converting the motor phase voltage to a DQ reference frame to form a DQ motor phase voltage and calculating the electrical angle offset from the DQ motor phase voltages.
