Is the Steering Wheel Movement Rotational or Translational?
1 Answers
The movement of the steering wheel can be either rotational or translational depending on the situation: when the car is moving straight, the steering wheel moves translationally; when the car is turning, the steering wheel rotates. The working principle of the steering wheel is to transmit torque to the rack and pinion mechanism, thereby pushing the wheels to turn left or right. Solutions for distinguishing left and right on the steering wheel include: 1. The left hand side is the left; 2. The passenger side is the right; 3. The side with gears is the right; 4. The side with the accelerator is the right. The method for removing the steering wheel is: 1. Disconnect all positive and negative battery cables; 2. Remove the lower inspection panel of the steering wheel; 3. Disconnect the connector between the airbag and the spiral cable; 4. Remove the driver's side airbag assembly; 5. Remove the steering wheel nut and take off the steering wheel.
