How to Make the Heavy Steering Wheel of Swift Lighter?
1 Answers
The Swift's steering wheel uses electronic power steering. If it becomes heavy, you can check whether the fuse is burnt out, if there are any open circuits or ground short circuits in the wiring. After inspecting and adjusting any problematic items, the issue of a heavy steering wheel can be resolved. There are several reasons why a car's steering wheel may become heavy: 1. For hydraulic power steering, check if the power steering fluid is low or if there is any leakage. If the fluid is low, it needs to be replenished to the normal range. If the fluid level is adequate, check if the power steering pump belt is too loose. If it is too loose, tighten the belt. Also, check if the fluid is too dirty, which can reduce its flowability. Generally, the fluid should be replaced every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. 2. For electronic power steering, check if the fuse is burnt out or if there are any open circuits or ground short circuits in the wiring. 3. Check the tire pressure. A leak can also cause the steering to become heavy, so inflate the tires if necessary. 4. If there is excessive play in the front suspension system, inspect and replace the lower control arm if needed. 5. If the steering ball joint is loose, inspect and replace the steering head after checking. 6. Changing the specifications of the front tires.
