What does the steering wheel icon on the dashboard indicate?
1 Answers
The steering wheel icon on the dashboard indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's power steering system, which may result in reduced or complete loss of power steering assistance. Immediate repair is recommended. All vehicles are equipped with power steering systems, with three common types: Electric Power Steering (EPS), Electro-Hydraulic Power Steering (EHPS), and Mechanical Hydraulic Power Steering (MHPS). The dashboard is a rigid panel or structural component designed to house instruments and related devices. It comes in various forms, including screen-type, frame-type, passage-type, and cabinet-type dashboards. Standard automotive gauges typically include the speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, coolant temperature gauge, fuel gauge, and charging indicator.
