What does it mean when the steering wheel has no play?
1 Answers
Steering wheel play refers to the situation where, when the vehicle is stationary, turning the steering wheel does not affect the direction of the wheels. This is called play. In fact, the amount of steering wheel play is related to the manufacturer's tuning and production process. Steering wheel play: Steering wheel play is the free movement (also called free angle or travel) of the car's steering wheel. It refers to the angle the steering wheel can turn without causing the steering wheels to deviate. It is the cumulative effect of the combined gaps in the entire steering system and the steering wheels. Causes: It is mainly due to the habit of turning the steering wheel to its limit. It's best not to turn the wheel when the car is stationary. Wait until the car starts moving slightly before turning, and regularly perform wheel alignment.
