2002 48v Club Car DS
after a new dash install i am getting a squeak in the steering wheel
when it is moved back and forth maybe an inch or two it has a loud squeak
it is only when wheels are straight
i have checked the steering wheel for tightness
column cover is not causing it
any ideas ?

Could be dry gears in rack and pinion. The noise would travel the stearing column. Jack it up and turn it all the way each way a few times. It may move enough grease to quite it down.
