ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for determining the center position of a steering system installed in a vehicle uses a distance based algorithm to correct the center position. The actual steering position is sampled periodically, based upon the distance traveled by the vehicle, and corrections are made according to the difference between the sampled positions and a previously assumed steering center.
