(I recently made another post about NTB screwing up my 4WS alignment, please disregard that post, as they stated they cannot do the electronic alignment, and in fact, no one around here does them, not even Tansky Honda!) Anyway...


Does anyone have any tips/ideas on how to properly disable 4WS without the 4ws light coming on? At this point, until I can find someone to do a proper 4WS alignment, I am going to drive with it off. I'm pretty sure the rear wheels are locking into place cause I can see them return to neutral and the car drives very straight with it off. Also, it feels good around corners.

I would like to be able to keep the 4WS light from coming on, and also, is there anything that can be used in place of the special actuator tool to keep it securely locked into place?

 

Basically, I'm asking if this is safe to operate with the 4WS off and using the auotmatic rear steering lock. Or do I need to put a locking pin in the rear for added safety?

 

I would also like to know, I got in an accident recently and am wondering how to permanently lockup my rear end, because it is now faulty. Or if anyone has one for sale let me know. Please meial me at jolter8706@juno.com

 

i have never known of anyone to use any sort of lock other than the electronic one.....im sure it can hold them straight if it can turn them under speed....

find somewhere that can do it....

 

There is a honda tool made to do the alignment. Its a tool you screw into the rear servo. Then do the alignment. The only difference in doing the alignment on the 4ws is you set front toe first, then rear toe, then front toe and camber, caster. Then you must remove the tool and drive happy. I'll check tomorrow how to disable it.
