Whether a customer has a power steering issue, comes in for a routine inspection, or notices their vehicle is out of alignment, they will need their steering and suspension system serviced regularly. Suspension systems, even though thought to be simple, are also advancing as vehicles evolve. Steering and suspension system troubleshooting with a scan tool is a common practice for reviewing sensor data and trouble codes. Still, it is always a good idea to begin any repair by following a wheel alignment inspection process.
Following proper procedures for electric power steering diagnostics or hydraulic power steering services can make all the difference when performing a repair or diagnosing a complex issue. Understanding the key differences between these two types of power steering systems can cut down on time spent servicing and repairing vehicles. These steering and suspension repair tips can help improve steering and suspension inspections, scan tool usage, and more advanced services like ADAS recalibration procedures.
