Hello,

I know it has been a few months since this Q was posted, but I am still interested in AD cars and have a couple myself. The steering problem you've described sounds to me like possibly the pot's wires are not correctly soldered onto the pot on the correct pins (If you bought the unit *used* this is possible I would think(; Or maybe the pot is installed upside-down in the servo assembly? If the Pot is installed up-side down (with the 3-prongs pointing upward-away from the POT, maybe this would cause improper POT finction..

Just a couple thoughts! Hope this helps!
