[voice over] If equipped, Trailer Reverse Steering Control, or TRSC, allows the driver to backup a trailer using a knob located on the center stack.
The driver controls the accelerator and brake pedals while steering the trailer in the direction the knob is turned.
This feature also allows the driver to back up a vehicle and trailer in a straight line when the knob is in the center position.
In this 2nd episode of my GT6000 garden tractor, I flip it on its side to inspect why this thing doesnt steer. Not only is the sector missing 3 teeth, but the rack and pinion swivel shaft is also seized from years and years of rust build up. I disassemble the entire steering assembly to get it to steer again.

In a previous episode, I attempt to weld blobs of flux metal to replace 3 missing teeth on my steering sector gear. While it worked for a while, the torque of steering merely grinded down the teeth that were meant to be cast iron strength. The stock original steering sector is extremely rare and hard to find. I did find one for $120 which I wasnt willing to pay. There were similar gears that are attached to a different linkage but I grinded the rivets off and welded onto my linkage. The part only cost $25 and now my steering is just like new.
