What are the symptoms of a faulty steering gear in the Baojun 560?
1 Answers
The symptom of a faulty steering gear in the Baojun 560 is that the steering wheel does not respond properly. Causes of steering gear failure: Power steering pump failure, steering gear failure, lack of oil, air in the system, or clogged return oil filter in the reservoir. Power steering pump failure: If testing shows that the pump pressure of the power steering pump does not meet the standard value, it is clear that the heavy steering is related to this. First, check whether the flow control valve and valve seat mating surface are tightly sealed, and whether the safety valve steel ball is properly closed. If there is leakage in the flow valve or safety valve, it can be repaired by grinding. Steering gear failure: If testing reveals low hydraulic pressure in the steering gear, the heavy steering is caused by the steering gear. In this case, professional repair services should be sought. Generally, steering gear failures are caused by piston or cylinder barrel damage, or a damaged piston seal ring, which allows the two chambers of the piston to communicate, preventing effective hydraulic pressure buildup. Additionally, damaged sealing rings on the piston circumference or steering screw can also lead to pressure loss and reduced hydraulic pressure. Lack of oil or air in the system: If the power steering system lacks oil, air can enter the system, resulting not only in heavy steering but also noise during steering. In this case, follow the oil refill and air bleeding procedure to remove the air.
