What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Turning the Steering Wheel to the Full Lock Position?
1 Answers
Abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel to the full lock position can be caused by the sound from the turn signal reset mechanism, interference from the clock spring (spiral cable), or noise from the steering column dust cover. Below are detailed explanations: Sound from the turn signal reset mechanism: If the turn signal is activated while turning, the noise may come from the rebound clip of the turn signal's automatic reset mechanism. Interference from the clock spring (spiral cable): Remove the steering wheel's clock spring and apply some grease to see if the noise persists. If it does, replace the clock spring. Noise from the steering column dust cover: Lack of lubrication in the steering column dust cover can cause friction noise. In this case, simply applying some grease inside the dust cover will eliminate the abnormal noise.
