STATIONARY STEERING FORCE CHECK


1.Park the vehicle on a level paved road, position the steering wheel in the straight ahead direction.
2.Start the engine.

3.Position a spring scale on the circumference of the steering wheel, and measure the steering force at the time when the steering wheel is turned clockwise or anticlockwise ±90° from the neutral position.
At the same time, verify that the steering force does not vary excessively in both directions.
Standard value:
Steering force
29 N or less
Fluctuation band
5.9 N or less
4.If not within the standard value, check and adjust the suspected components.
