When you turn the steering wheel all the way to the left, what happens?
When you turn the steering wheel all the way to the right, what happens?
How many rotations does a steering wheel make? |

Nothing happens, except for wheels turn all the way to the left or to the right, respectively.
As for how many rotations it is a car specific, and ranges form less then one for race cars to half a dozen for heavy trucks... |

There are two kinds of steering. Power steering and ordinary steering. In power steering you need to rotate 1 1/2 times and in ordinary you have to rotate twice the steering wheel for a full turn to left or right. |

Power steering (or more correctly for most road vehicles power assisted steering), assists the driver of an automobile in steering by directing a portion of the vehicle's power to traverse the axis of one or more of the roadwheels. On most road going vehicles there has to be a mechanical linkage as a fail safe. |
