How to Adjust a Misaligned Car Steering Wheel?
1 Answers
To adjust a misaligned car steering wheel, follow these steps: Turn the steering wheel fully to the right to expose the rear of the left front wheel. Then, use a wrench to loosen the fixing nut and rotate the left tie rod clockwise. After adjusting the left front wheel, proceed to adjust the right front wheel in the opposite direction. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of vehicles such as cars, ships, and airplanes. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. It mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and corresponding installation clips or screw holes for the driver's airbag (DAB). Using a larger diameter steering wheel reduces the hand force required by the driver when turning. The steering intermediate shaft, serving as a connector between the steering gear and the steering shaft, facilitates the standardization of steering gears, compensates for errors during manufacturing and installation, and ensures more rational installation of the steering gear and steering wheel in the vehicle.
