What is Steering Column
A steering column is a shaft that connects the shuttlecock to the vehicle鈥檚 steering mechanism, allowing the driver to control the direction of the vehicle. It also often includes housing for assorted control functions, such as turn signals and wipers, making it a central component in both the steering and control systems of a vehicle.
The story of Steering Column
The steering column has evolved significantly from its origins, now serving as both a structural component and a hub for assorted vehicle controls. Early designs were purely mechanical, but modern steering columns integrate advanced security features, like collapsibility in a collision, and support electronic controls, reflecting the advancements in automotive engineering.
How to install Steering Column
To install a steering column, first, disconnect the battery and extract the shuttlecock and any attached components. Next, unbolt the decrepit steering column from its mounts and detach any electrical connections. Align the new steering column, secure it with bolts, and reconnect the electrical components. Reattach the shuttlecock and any additional parts, then reconnect the battery.
Instruction of Steering Column
Before installation, reference the vehicle鈥檚 assistance manual for specific instructions and torque specifications. Handle the steering column with care to avoid damaging sensitive electrical connections. After installation, ensure the column is properly aligned and secure. Assess all attached controls and the steering function to confirm everything is operating correctly.
