Anyone know what function the sleeve on the steering column up next to the firewall serves on a 07' JK? If this sleeve slides out, will it allow the steering wheel to turn from center & cause the steering sensor to activate the ESP/BAS lights? Also cause the lights to stay on & the TCM to be activated on startup?
If this sleeve would not allow the steering wheel to turn from center, what would? Checked draglink (straight & tight) Checked tierod (straight & tight) Pitman arm (tight) TR ends (tight) nothing in the steering from the box to the knuckles seems to have moved.
I re-centered the steering wheel by adjusting the draglink (pulled together) & after a few miles the lights went out & everything seems to be back to normal. But it concerns me that something in the steering box? or column? would allow the wheel to turn from center.
Can anyone enlighten me?
