How to Determine if the Steering Wheel is Centered?
1 Answers
Turn the steering wheel 90 degrees left and right to feel its weight. When the steering wheel is centered, turning it 90 degrees feels lighter, and another 90-degree turn feels tighter. Use forward or backward movement to check if the steering wheel is straight. After parking, moving slightly forward or backward can help determine if the steering wheel is properly aligned. If conditions allow when parking, you can stick your head out of the window to observe whether the tires are straight. Observing while driving makes it easier to center the steering wheel. Whether turning the steering wheel halfway or fully, no need to worry about the exact degrees when centering—simply return the steering wheel emblem to the upward position.
