I replace My steering servo a while ago and haven't got to this minor
problem yet. When I installed the servo the steering was reversed so
I hit the servo reversing switch on my controller. It reversed it but
the wheels went to the left. I put the steering trim all the way to
the left to compensate but the wheels are still slightly to the left
and offcenter.Does this make any sense to you guys?

Yeah.. cuz when you do a server reverse, the neutral position of the servo
changes slightly.. I did that once with my TL-01 when i was changing the
receiver and radio.. i had to rip out the servo and re-neutral the servo and
radio in reverse.. if u have a radio like the JR XR2 you can digitally reset
the neutral position of the servo without all that crap.

take the servo horn off the servo
readjust tthe trim back to the center on the radio
re install the horn back on the servo as close to center as possible
adjust the trim to center the wheels on the car
now do you have full range of motion when steer?
