my Toolcat series A rear wheels when the steering centered light is on are turned about 5 degrees, where is the sensor located and how is it adjusted to correct this problem

thanks

There is one sensor per axle located at one of the top hub pivot bearings. I think the rear is at right side top bearing. There is no adjustment to the sensor, sets in a slot in the hub. Only calibration I can recall is with dealer software.

Those sensors are not that accurate. It's like a stud finder...the light comes on at the beginning of the stud, then off at the end of the stud.

yes its about 5 to to degrees, the dealer figured it was a sensor on the hydraulic rod but nothing, I will check out the pivots tomorrow in the light, if its a rotary switch like a volume switch I can see dealer calibration but a proximity switch is what I expected,

Wheel alignment has to be done at a dealer. unit needs to be plugged in to service tool and sensors recalibrated. :thumbsup:
