发明名称 WHEEL ALIGNMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR VEHICLES HAVING ELECTRO-MECHANICAL POWER STEERING
摘要 A method and apparatus are provided for aligning the wheels of a vehicle equipped with an electro-mechanical power steering system having a steering angle sensor, a torque sensor, and a torsion bar linking the steering angle sensor and the torque sensor. Embodiments include moving a steering wheel of the vehicle to a level position such that there is substantially no torque applied to the torsion bar; adjusting the toe of a first one of the front wheels of the vehicle after the steering wheel is moved to the level position; and moving the steering wheel substantially back to the level position, then re-adjusting the toe of the first one of the front wheels, when the steering wheel has moved more than a predetermined angle from the level position while adjusting the toe of the first one of the front wheels.
