stock 1997 3,0

my steering wheel is to light,i dont even have to try to turn it lol

my fluid is at normal level

anyone please help me?

 

Boost is increased at stop and low speed, and decreased as speed reaches preset level. If this is a new car, you may need to adjust to the steering effort.

On 4-cyl. Accords the PS boost provides for 6.6 lbs (max) effort to move the steering wheel w/ vehicle idling and stopped. This is effort at the outside rim of steering wheel. If your effort is less than this, there is no specified diagnostic or remedy that I could see in shop manual for 94-97 2.2 Accords.

good luck

 

wow mine is so light!! i thought it was like that though. i never felt 6.6 pounds on the steering befor thats for sure

 

sorry to steal your thread but should we fix this or is it okay to leave it as is?

 

Low steering effort at speed can be a symptom of poor alignment, usually caster problem.

However low turning effort at stop can't be adjusted as far as I can tell.

good luck

 

what about high speed turning effort,i got too much play at high speeds that if i hit a bump the car will not continue straight rather feel like slipping to one side ...especially when your all out(like in a race or flooring it in general) then its hard to keep control of the vehicle

 

that could be a problem.

 

Yeah, that would suck.

 

so is it complicated to fix ''steering effort''? how much will i be looking at money wise?

 

it sounds like your tires are getting bald.

 

My tires were literally bald and I never had that problem. =/

 

get an allingnment. that should help. as far as loose steering i have it too. doesn't bother me. just make sure you get that allignment. before i had my wheels alligned my steering wheel would drive itself left and right all it wanted. after the allignment things got better.

 

check your radio fuse...

 

my radio fuse?....lol

i already did alignment on 3-26-08

but my steering wheel is not straight??,,,after alignment it was..then like two weeks ago it tilted to 12:30-1:00 position

my tires are good ALTHOUGH THEY ALL ARE DIFFRENT TREAD DESIGN,NOT LEVEL,BUT DESIGN..is that gonna do anything?

 

 

they didnt tighten your tie rods
take it back. first time they did the same with me.

 

a lot of fuses names dont make sense. once i had a burnt light fuse and car wouldnt start. believe it
