Checking Steering Wheel Return
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL RETURNCheck the steering wheel return and confirm the following points:
1. The force required to turn the steering wheel and the wheel return should be the same for both moderate and sharp turns.
2. When the steering wheel is turned 90° and held for a couple of seconds while the vehicle is being driven at 20 - 30 kph (12 - 19 mph), the steering wheel should return at least 20° from its central position when it is released.
NOTE: If the steering wheel is turned very quickly, steering may be momentarily difficult. This is not a malfunction because the oil pump output will be somewhat decreased.
